Overview

"Without the typical discomfort with which we all approach the taboo subject of money, Wallace D. Wattles opens his now 104-year-old book with the proclamation that we all need to be rich. You have read that correctly: we need-not want-to be rich. Mr. Wattles' audacity does not stop at that either. Within the same first page, he asserts that even our noblest, most spiritual goals require money-lots of it! His argument is a far stretch from our quaint, old cliché that claims money is the root of all evil. By erasing the imaginary line we all have drawn between our spiritual and our financial lives, between our minds and our bodies, Wallace D. Wattles exposes us to a more universal, boundless truth. It is this holistic vision of prosperity that separates the author, who dared to value wealth with his spirit, from the greedy, money-worshippers we all know and detest. Mr. Wattles' panoramic vision of money influenced modern classics such as Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich and Rhonda Byrne's 2006 Bestseller, The Secret. On Oprah Winfrey's website, the latter remarked on Wattles' work: Something inside of me had me turn the pages one by one, and I can still remember my tears hitting the pages as I was reading it... It gave me a glimpse of The Secret. It was like a flame inside of my heart. And with every day since, it's just become a raging fire of wanting to share all of this with the world. Why exactly does Wallace D. Wattles' book continue to inspire people more than 100 years later? The simple answer is that The Science of Getting Rich recognizes wealth as a necessary and worthy cause-one that is highly attainable. And not only is wealth within our reach, it also requires more thought and creativity from us than it does brutal competition. Mr. Wattles adds the word ""science"" as a fitting part of the title because he indentifies the unbiased laws, like those of physics and algebra, which govern wealth. His book is the detailed, wise, and comprehensible guide to those laws and how they can lead us to the life we deserve. Instructing one on a path to wealth that is paved with gratitude, faith, and willpower, Wallace D. Wattles unites virtue and prosperity like few people of our generation can. His revelatory book is a close-up to a detailed and inspired method-one that has survived the test of time for over a century and requires nothing more than our willingness to think positively."
