About the Author

Dr. Frederick Bailes (1889-1970) of Los Angeles, Calif. was among the most popular and important teachers of the Science of Mind. Dr. Bailes served with Science of Mind founder Ernest Holmes as Assistant Dean of the Science of Mind Institute in Los Angeles. He also headed the largest Science of Mind church of its day. In addition, Dr. Bailes was an accomplished metaphysical healer, having healed himself of a so-called incurable disease, using the very technique - "Treatment" - that he explains in these Lessons. "The Science of Mind philosophy," says Dr. Frederick Bailes, "is not a few psychological tricks; it is a life to be lived."
