* Health and the Inner Life
* An Analytical and Historical Study of Mental Healing Theories, with an Account of the Life and Teachings of P.P Quimby. 12$^o$. Net. $1.35
* In this volume two purposes have been fulfilled: it applies to the problems of human suffering a practical spiritual philosophy of the inner life, and it contains a dscriminative exposition of the more permanent and rational principles which underlie the modern mental healing movement. As the title implies, it does not claim to be an exhaustive study of healing and disease. Nor is its spiritual healing theory brought forward as the one unfailing resource. The aim of the author has been to put the inquirer in possession of the necessary clues so that he can rightly estimate the various popular therapeutic doctrines of the day, and select the principles which withstand the test of time reason and experience. ​
* The Philosophy of the Spirit
* A Study of the Spiritual Nature of Man and the Presence of God. With a Supplementerg Essay on the Logic of Hegel. 8vo $2.50 net
* In this work the author of "The Power of Silence." "Living by the Spirit," and other volume of essays on the inner life. has undertaken a systematic study of the higher nature of man in relation to the divine presence. The Spirit is defined as God in action, in immediate reference to experiences with which every man is familiar: the divine presence is said to be immanent in all departments of human life. In contrast with the agnosticism of the day. emphasis is placed upon what man knows instead of upon that of which he is doubtful. The result is an illuminating study of the life of feeling, the emotions, intuition. guidance, faith, and reason. The central clue is found in "the witness of the Spirit," that is, the evidences which every man wittingly or unwittingly possesses of the co-operative life of the Spirit, working in and through him. There is a careful analysis of spontaneity, receptivity, and inner promptings of all kinds, and of the entire immediate side of man’s nature as opposed to the intellectual or critical side.
* Nevertheless the results of the critical philosophy are constantly taken into account, and in a supplementary essay on Hegel's Logic, Dr. Dresser makes good the practical part of his argument by reference to Hegel's fundamental analysis of immediacy. As a whole, the book is a direct appeal to immediate,verifiable experience, in contrast with all speculative systems. it is constructive throughout and will greatly aid those who are in search of a positive, rational faith, in comparison with previous works by this author, the book marks a great advance in thought and in literary style.
* A Physician to the Soul
* Crown 8vo $1.00 net
* The purpose of this new volume by the author of "Living by the Spirit," and other books on the inner life. is to apply the idealism of the previous volumes to individual problems. A portion of the hook is devoted to the principles which underlie the work of adaptation to individual needs and is especially meant for teachers, ministers. and others who wish to become physicians to the soul. The remainder of the hook is addressed to those who have personal problems to solve. In the form of letters to various people needing help Dr. Dresser expounds practical methods of thought in a very personal, immediate sort of way. These modes of thought are intended to indicate the next step beyond mental healing as commonly practised. Particularly timely is a discussion of the new ecclesiastical theory known as the "Emmanuel Movement," also an may entitled "The True Christian Science." ​
