The 100-year-old book that inspired Rhonda Byrne's bestselling The Secret Live your dream Acquire wealth Learn a proven method for success Access your inner strength Realize your potential Rediscover the original version of Wallace D. Wattles's 1910 classic, The Science
...(more) of Getting Rich--the forerunner of every personal finance and self-help book ever written. Explore the principles that have shown generations of readers the way to riches and fulfillment in life. "The book, as it turns out, is about getting rich - not only in terms of money but in every possible way, including relationships and health. As I read, it became clear to me that what Wattles was presenting was actually the science of life. He wrote The Science of Getting Rich in 1910 for the coal miners in his area, so the book is quite short and the language is simple. He doesn't get into philosophies or theories. He doesn't explain why or how it works. He just says, 'Do what I say and your life will completely change.'" (Rhonda Byrne, executive producer of The Secret, as quoted in You've Got To Read This Book!)(less)

I've come across a few books that had power in them. It's hard to describe the experience, but it's something like feeling a rush of energy or the energy shift around you when you read the book. Depending on where you're at on your journey of manifestation, you may or may not be receptive to everything in the book (there are a lot of contextual references from the early 1900's that don't really work anymore), but just reading it will help you understand how manifestation works a little bit more.
I was fortunate to read this soon after I read Divine Magic (http://books.zaadz.com/3308/divine_magic/by_doreen_virtue) and it is very much a practical application of many of the ideas in that book. I love the way a book written nearly 100 years ago meshes with a book written today.
