"An explanation of the Community's theory of criticism--'telling a member. . . what is the opinion of his fellows about him--which he or she, of course, ought to receive in silence'. . . Included are several illustrations of the practical application of criticism (case histories); an explanation of the value of the practice not only for spiritual and moral effects but also as a 'hygienic agency'".
