Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Book of Life: Or Spiritual, Social, and Physical Constitution of Man
Seven Great. Forces were concerned in those vast movements of early creation. Gravity marked elliptic orbits for the path of worlds. Electricity and magnetism polarized and thus rotated these worlds on their axes. Chemic force, heat, and' light built up the solid rocks and arranged their wide spread layers. And the vital force crowded the sea and land with the myriad tribes of animal and plant life. These forces held the same relations to each other then as now. No new forces were either brought into existence or destroyed. The materials which were used had always existed 'in one form or another. For Matter, Ether, and Spirit, alike possess eternal forces.
