Curiously, nowhere does the book have an author (and it is so listed without having an author's name by the U.S. Library of Congress). Nevertheless, the text was written by Helen Schucman (deceased) and William Thetford Schucman has related that the book's material is primarily based on communications to her from an "inner voice" she claimed was Jesus.

Because the 1st edition, the book has sold a number of million copies, with translations into almost two-dozen languages.

The book's origins can be traced back to the early 1970s Helen Schucman first experiences with the "inner voice" led to her then supervisor, William Thetford, to make contact with Hugh Cayce at the Association for Investigation and Enlightenment. In turn, an introduction to Kenneth Wapnick (later the book's editor) occurred. At the time of the introduction, Wapnick was clinical psychologist. Soon after meeting, Schucman and Wapnik spent over a year editing and revising the material. a course in miracles , this time of Schucman, Wapnik, and Thetford to Robert Skutch and Judith Skutch Whitson, of the Foundation for Inner Peace. The initial printings of the book for distribution were in 1975.

Neither the workbook nor the Course in Miracles is intended to comprehensive the reader's learning just, the supplies are a start off.

A Course in Miracles distinguishes among expertise and perception truth is unalterable and eternal, whilst perception is the world of time, change, and interpretation. The planet of perception reinforces the dominant suggestions in our minds, and keeps us separate from the truth, and separate from God. Perception is limited by the body's limitations in the physical world, hence limiting awareness. A lot of the knowledge of the globe reinforces the ego, and the individual's separation from God. But, by accepting the vision of Christ, and the voice of the Holy Spirit, one learns forgiveness, each for oneself and others.
