From AudioFile
Wattless book, first published in 1910, jumps into the present with the help of Eliza Fosss hip reading. Her voice sounds youthful yet educated, relaxed yet firmly engaged with the core of the lesson. The writing of this era is a delight--confident, erudite, precise. The nonsectarian spiritual component will elevate listeners intentions and encourage their faith in the message. The author says that visualizing, thinking, and doing things in a certain way are the tools we need to create the abundant life we deserve. He is especially lucid regarding the correct use of the will, which should be used not to control others, but to direct our own thoughts and actions toward the future of wealth we desire.

Customer Reviews

Get the real version of this book.
Dr. Powell has butchered this classic to the point that this copy is not useable. Instead of the clear, simple prose W.D. Wattles wrote, you are left with the mindless drivel that Dr. Powell uses as examples to illustrate Wattles' points. Wattles expressly left out examples, and it was very effective. If you want to read what Wattles wrote, your only choice at this time is to find it elsewhere on the net, as the original version is no longer in print. There are a number of versions of this book floating around, but this one has the least in common with the original.

Nothing worth reading
This book has to be one of the worst books I have read. It took me 2 months to finish. After just a few pages I had to put it down. That's how bad it is.

Adulteration of a Classic
No doubt about it, Wallace Wattles' work is mandatory for the ambitious fortune collector. Unfortunately, Dr. Powell's version makes utter hogwash of the classic. Her 'explanation' of Wattles' theory is more than useless and befuddles understanding rather than helping it.
Instead of this blatant nonsense, do yourself a favor and get the unaltered original version by iceni books.
