The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.
Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.

Here are some of the new June book releases that the Monitor's book critics liked best.
File this one under the heading of "stranger than fiction." Philip Eade tells the odd yet true story of Sylvia Brooke, wife of Sir Vyner Brooke, the "last White Rajah," whose family had ruled the jungle kingdom of Sarawak on Borneo for three generations. As privileged socialites who also happened to be colonial heads of state, the Brookes were bizarrely fascinating examples of a world that no longer exists. You can see the Monitor's full review of "Sylvia, Queen of the Headhunters" here.
