The symphony of life : a series of constructive sketches and interpretations

Henry Wood’s book presents an optimistic philosophy of self-culture, moral development, and harmony between mind, character, and the larger order of life. Published in the New Thought milieu of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it reflects the movement’s emphasis on practical spiritual improvement, and readers will find reflective essays on thought, conduct, and purposeful living.

Henry Wood is associated with late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century spiritual and metaphysical writing. His works are linked to the New Thought and broader occult-philosophical milieu, emphasizing mental healing, spiritual development, and idealist metaphysics.
