This was written by Mary Baker Eddy. Her first pamphlet on Christian Science was copyrighted in 1870. However, it did not appear in print until 1876, as she had learned that this science must be demonstrated by healing before a work on the subject could be profitably studied. The first edition of Science and Health was published in 1875.

This edition was published by The Trustees Under the Will of Mary Baker G. Eddy. The date is not given, but the latest copyright date is 1934.
