Émile Coué de la Châtaigneraie (1857-1926) was a French psychologist and pharmacist who introduced a popular method of psychotherapy and self-improvement based on optimistic autosuggestion. “THE distinctive feature of M. Coué’s method, compared with other popular methods of self-healing, lies in the fact that it reposes on purely psychological bases. This is its value. We may be reproached with robbing it, in this book, of its psychological foundation and confusing its clarity with mystical speculation. But this is not so. The value of M. Coué’s psychological doctrine and of his technical method is in no sense denied or depreciated in these pages. We compare and contrast his teaching with the teaching of Christ on cognate subjects. Finding between them an essential harmony, we attempt to place autosuggestion in its true position in Christian life and thought, and to utilise the Christian dynamic for extending and deepening its power. The secular practice of autosuggestion continues unaltered, but side by side with it we attempt to erect, in essential outlines, a Christian practice of autosuggestion.”—C. Harry Brooks

Autosuggestion is a type of therapy that calls on techniques such as hypnotism. Subjects use autosuggestion on themselves with the aim of curing bad habits, inculcating positive ones, boosting willpower, and even assuaging the symptoms of physical health problems. This practical treatise represents one of the first American publications to deal with the subject; it was produced in cooperation with Emile Coue, who pioneered the technique.

My reference manual will give Christians a hands-on tool that will help them prepare to witness to Mormons on a variety of important topics. My work is uniquely different from the chapter on Mormonism in the fine academic work, The Kingdom of the Cults by Walter Martin. This work is intended to provide the reader with first and foremost, a biblical refutation of Mormonism in the areas of scriptural authority, God's sovereignty, soteriology, the idea of present day apostles, the alleged apostasy of the church and eschatology. There will be a detailed refutation of Mormonism in subsequent chapters ranging from its founding historical problems, false prophecies, internal contradictions and absurdities, its un-biblical view of the God-head, to philosophical worldview absurdities. Many of my arguments in this work are polemical in nature, as is necessitated in contending for the faith.

The author argues that mysticism is not confined to Christianity, but the relation between the soul and Christ is a distinctive mystical experience; and it is specific in this sense, that this relation works out in a certain practice of life and certain development of character. It is this concrete effect of a true Christian mysticism which forms the subject of this book.
