.pdf  1918 1st Macfadden, Bates book; Booklet 1.pdf (Size: 32.11 MB / Downloads: 243)

This seems to be the FIRST 1918 print edition of Strengthening The Eyes - A New Course in Scientific Eye Training in 28 Lessons by Bernarr MacFadden & William H. Bates M. D. with Dr. Bates' name on the box cover, all internal chapter/booklet covers and his picture and Bernarr MacFaddens' mention of Dr. Bates, MacFadden's learning of The Bates Method from Dr. Bates in the Introductory.

Later editions were changed; Dr. Bates' name was only on the box cover. Mention of him was changed to 'an ophthalmologist'. His name in the Introductory was omitted. Later editions; Dr. Bates name was also removed from the cover. Then, later editions; the kit was turned into a book with a blue cover.

See the other pdf I uploaded to the website about 1-2 months ago explaining why;
Dr. Bates may have preferred solely his own way of teaching. Some methods in this old book are not taught by Dr. Bates. Eye rolls, eye baths... are not the Bates Method and can impair the vision if done wrong. Some are just not effective. There are many beneficial practices in this old 1918 book. Looking close and far is often a quick cure when combined with the Bates Method. Shifting, central-fixation are main effective Bates Method practices. http://www.cleareyesight-batesmethod.info provides this book free in PDF text form with the additional instructions, lists what to apply, what to avoid. Dr. Bates went solo as a publisher.

It is possible that Bernarr MacFadden was threatened by eye doctors who prefer to sell eyeglasses, eye surgery, to hide natural eyesight improvement. The doctors may have forced him to stop publishing with Dr. Bates. Dr. Bates was curing many people without glasses, surgery. This upset the medical community's finances.
Dr. Bates received death threats from these dishonest, greedy eye doctors during his life and right before his death.

Honest doctors preserved his books, magazines, medical articles.
