That Mrs. Eddy expected Science and Health to take over from the personal role of teacher is clear when, after closing her Church and College organization, and after the publication of the great 50th edition of Science and Health, she wrote to her students as follows:  "You can well afford to give me up, since you have in my last revised edition of Science and Health your teacher and guide" (Mis. 136:18-21).

John Hargreaves was asked frequently by patients and friends to discuss with them the 24 questions and answers that comprise the chapter "Recapitulation" in Science and Health.  This book arises from the countless talks with those with whom he has had contact, in the course of which he suggested pointers that might help individual study.  This book collects the insights that proved to be exciting and helpful to those asking for him to share his perspectives after his in-depth study and discussion of Mrs. Eddy's writings.  His insights encourage students to look with new understanding to "Recapitulation" to further their own growth in the understanding of the Science of Being.

This book was written to be read in conjunction with Science and Health.  It does not and should not stand by itself.  Science and Health is the proven source material, and the value of this commentary rests on the degree to which thought is helped to study the original more deeply.
