In its present from it represents somewhat of a revision in the
selection of items and an improvement in the order of their appearance.
A chapter titled “Love and Sexuality in the Human Experience” has
been added. Additions have rounded out certain chapters, and some
deletions have eliminated unnecessary repetition. Paging is continuous

entire work are at the close.
That the clearly traced picture of the great controversy between the
forces of good and evil for the control of the human mind may warn
and enlighten all readers and provide suggestions and direction for
choosing that which will give safe guidance today and ensure a future
inheritance in the life to come is the earnest hope of
