Book Overview

Wallace D. Wattles was an American author and a pioneer success writer.

His most famous work is a book called The Science of Getting Rich in which he explains how to get rich.

He personally "tested" the principles he describes in his book and they worked, as although he had lived most of his life in poverty, in his later years became rich.

Other books by Wallace include Health Through New Thought and Fasting, The Science of Being Great, The Science of Being Well, Making of the Man Who Can and a novel, Hellfire Harrison.

Little is known about Wattles' life.

He was born in the USA shortly before the civil war, and experienced much failure in his earlier years. Later in life he took to studying the various religious beliefs and philosophies of the world including those of Descartes, Spinoza, Gottfried Leibniz, Schopenhauer, Hegel, Swedenborg, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and others.

It was through his tireless study and experimentation that he discovered the truth of New Thought principles and put them into practice in his own life. He began to write books outlining these principles.

He practiced the technique of creative visualisation and as his daughter Florence relates, "He wrote almost constantly.

It was then that he formed his mental picture.

He saw himself as a successful writer, a personality of power, an advancing man, and he began to work toward the realization of this vision. He lived every page ... His life was truly the powerful life."

Wattles has been the author of numerous works as a part of the New Thought movement of the early 20th century.

So simple

This book offers simple answers to those who are prepared to absorb them. Go to the quiet and listen to your body. First, you must learn to be still and listen. Good advice.

Excellent

I highly recommned this book to anyone who desires health in their life. This was an easy read. I could not put the book down.

True wisdom usually comes in few words...

I have read many books on diet and fasting, and do fast regularly. This book touches on the liitle known fact that fasting is a PRESCRIPTION for physical (not just spiritual) health. The body was designed to thrive on clean air, clean water, and a minimal amount of pure whole food (in that order). Just think about how long you can go without air (seconds, maybe minutes), before the body goes into a panic? Now think about water... (several days)? And food...? The body can live at least a month without solid food, and even longer on liquid food (raw juices and such). Wattles explains, in a somewhat scientific way, that fasting is not only desired for health , but required. It is required to recover quickly from illnesses and to maximize your lifespan. Not many books on the market will approach this subject as he has, and this book is a gem for my library.

Remarkale Book

This book is remarkable. I look at food and the way I eat differently. I also do all I can to stay aware of how my body regenerates itself while I sleep. The explanations are clearly explained and this book is easily read in a day. If you have diet issues I urge you to read this book.
