BY
THE LORD BISHOP OF WINCHESTER
Farnham Castle, Surrey:
July 4, 1910.
Dear Mr. Geoffrey Rhodes,
The appearance of your volume is very welcome. There is, I believe, a real need for such a work. You are to be congratulated on the results of the energy and patience which you have bestowed upon its preparation. You have a true reward in the support of writers so varied and conspicuous in distinction as those whose names you have been able to bring together.
You are enabling the whole reading world to judge for itself, how the subject of ‘Spiritual,’ ‘Mental,’ or ‘Faith’ healing, which during the past ten years has forced itself upon public notice, is being regarded by able, thoughtful, and impartial minds. There is no doubt that scientific medical men are not going to pay attention to evidence of an unscientific character. They will not waste their time over it. Nevertheless, to phenomena duly attested, and to evidence scientifically recorded, they will give the most scrupulous attention. It is the detailed and accurate collection and classification of facts by those who are trained for the task and expert in its process, that must precede generalisations upon this new, or shall we call it, revived, branch of therapeutics.
