Negative Positive
Title: A painful yet panoramic view, especially since 1910
Review: As difficult at times as this book was to read for this supporter of CS, I had been sensing for some time that an expose' of this magnitude was somewhere out there lurking, just waiting for a writer with the courage to challenge the Board and set the record (reasonably) straight. Yes, some of the facts Ms. Fraser presents regarding the life of Mrs. Eddy can be called into question (what biography of a notable person HASN'T had this problem since the advent of the genre'?) but her account of institutional CS over the last 90 years is essentially correct. Still, upon completion of this tome, I couldn't help but notice that the following maxim still holds largely - and frustratingly - true: for those individuals of faith, no further proof is ever necessary; for non-believers, no further proof is ever enough.
Is the review positive or negative?
