THE BOOK OF LIFE
 By Upton Sinclair

CONTENTS OF _VOL_I

PAGE
Chapter I. The Nature of Life 3
Attempts to show what we know about life; to set the
bounds of real truth as distinguished from phrases and
self-deception.
Chapter II. The Nature of Faith 8
Attempts to show what we can prove by our reason, and
what we know intuitively; what is implied in the process
of thinking, and without which no thought could be.
Chapter III. The Use of Reason 12
Attempts to show that in the field to which reason applies
we are compelled to use it, and are justified in trusting it.
Chapter IV. The Origin of Morality 17
Compares the ways of Nature with human morality, and
tries to show how the latter came to be.
Chapter V. Nature and Man 21
Attempts to show how man has taken control of Nature,
and is carrying on her processes and improving upon them.
Chapter VI. Man the Rebel 27
Shows the transition stage between instinct and reason,
in which man finds himself, and how he can advance to
a securer condition.
Chapter VII. Making Our Morals 31
Attempts to show that human morality must change to fit
human facts, and there can be no judge of it save human
reason.
Chapter VIII. The Virtue of Moderation 37
Attempts to show that wise conduct is an adjustment of
means to ends, and depends upon the understanding of a
particular set of circumstances.
Chapter IX. The Choosing of Life 42
Discusses the standards by which we may judge what is
best in life, and decide what we wish to make of it.
Chapter X. Myself and My Neighbor 50
Compares the new morality with the old, and discusses the
relative importance of our various duties.

Discusses the interaction between physical and mental
things, and the possibility of freedom in a world of fixed
causes.
Chapter XII. The Mind of the Body 61
Discusses the subconscious mind, what it is, what it does
to the body, and how it can be controlled and made use
of by the intelligence.
Chapter XIII. Exploring the Subconscious 67
Discusses automatic writing, the analysis of dreams, and
other methods by which a new universe of life has been
brought to human knowledge.
Chapter XIV. The Problem of Immortality 74
Discusses the survival of personality from the moral point
of view: that is, have we any claim upon life, entitling
us to live forever?
Chapter XV. The Evidence for Survival 81
Discusses the data of psychic research, and the proofs of
spiritism thus put before us.
Chapter XVI. The Powers of the Mind 91
Sets forth the fact that knowledge is freedom and ignorance
is slavery, and what science means to the people.
Chapter XVII. The Conduct of the Mind 98
Concludes the Book of the Mind with a study of how to
preserve and develop its powers for the protection of our
lives and the lives of all men.

PART TWO: THE BOOK OF THE BODY

Chapter XVIII. The Unity of the Body 105

Discusses the body as a whole, and shows that health is

Chapter XIX. Experiments in Diet 115

his conclusions as to what to eat.
Chapter XX. Errors in Diet 123
Discusses the different kinds of foods, and the part they

Concludes the subject of diet, and discusses the effect upon
the system of stimulants and narcotics.
Chapter XXIII. More About Health 156
Discusses the subjects of breathing and ventilation, clothing,
bathing and sleep.
Chapter XXIV. Work and Play 163
Deals with the question of exercise, both for the idle and
the overworked.
 Chapter XXV. The Fasting Cure 169
Deals with Nature's own remedy for disease, and how to
make use of it.

Discusses various methods of building up the body after
a fast, especially the milk diet.
Chapter XXVII. Diseases and Cures 182
