P. P. Quimby has been called the founder of 'New Thought.' This set of documents, published in 1921 in response to a campaign to question his early role in Christian Science, shows that Quimby indeed anticipated many of the key ideas of both movements."FOR many years a mass of documents of interest to Christian Scientists and to their critics as well, has been withheld from publication, although earnestly sought. These documents were written by Dr. P. P. Quimby, of Portland, Maine, and contain his views regarding mental and spiritual healing. They became familiar to Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy when she visited Dr. Quimby as a patient, and it has been charged by her critics that many of the ideas later promulgated in her teachings were born of the Quimby theories.In order to set this controversy at rest, many attempts have been made to gain access to the Quimby manuscripts, but heretofore without success except in piecemeal or disjointed form.

The Quimby Manuscripts by Phineas Parkhurst Quimby are a truly great read for those who are interested in understanding more about the power of thought in healing. It is a collection of the various works of Quimby, put together by Horatio W. Dresser, a man who claimed that both he and his wife had been cured by the healing powers possessed by Quimby. The book is a concise collection of the various writing of Quimby that had previously been unattainable by the public due to being withheld by a Mrs Mary Eddy. The book is mostly made up of Quimby's work but has been edited and added to by Mr. H. Dresser in an attempt to make them more readable and to avoid repetition. Included in the book are an assortment of letters exchanged between Quimby and his patients and those interested in his works. The book is also of quite a religious flavour, with Quimby addressing how he believed his work to fit in with Christian Science. It is a highly interesting book with many remarkable ideas on the healing of the body through spiritual means and the power of thought. Quimby work is often referred to as the forerunner of the 'New Thought' movement of the 19th century. A truly unmissable read on the subject of esoteric and spiritual healing.

The Quimby Manuscripts by Phineas Parkhurst Quimby is a collection of writings that delves into the healing philosophy and spiritual insights of the influential New Thought pioneer. Originally written in the 19th century, these manuscripts provide a window into Quimby's revolutionary ideas on the relationship between mind, body, and healing.
Dr. Phineas Parkhurst Quimby (1802-1866) was a lifelong resident of Belfast, ME and a clockmaker, by trade. From the late 1840s until the time of his transition, he wrote down his own particular philosophical, psychological and metaphysical views on life, death, health, religion and the mind. His early studies of hypnosis, then called mesmerism, led him later on to develop his unique method of healing for both mental and physical affirmities. Proud of his New England heritage, passionate in his love of liberty and equality for all, outspoken in his admonitions against what he considered aristocracy and priestcraft, empathetic toward the sick and suffering, he recorded his experiences, experiments and case studies of his own life journey's explorations into humanity and spirituality, in order to leave behind, for us, what he found, for himself, to be universally applicable truths, for the benefit of all mankind. For this reason, he wrote this book. (Hardcover Edition) (700 pages)
