The Science of Being Great

The author of The Science of Getting Rich brings you The Science of Being Great. Wallace D. Wattles introduced the world to the power of positive thinking. He was a profound influence on Michael Losier and James Arthur Ray. With out Wattles "Science Of trilogy" there never would have been books such as The Laws of Attraction, The Science of Success, and the Power of Positive Thinking. Now you can go directly to the source. Here is the complete unabridged text from the first edition.

Wallace Delois Wattles was an American who wrote about New Thought. He lived from 1860 to 1911. He isn't very well known as a person, but his writing is still used in the New Thought and self-help groups and is still in print. Wattles's most well-known work is a book he wrote in 1910 called The Science of Getting Rich. In it, he talks about how to get rich. Florence wrote that in the three years before he died, "he made a lot of money and was healthy, except that he was very weak." Wattles died in Ruskin, Tennessee, on February 7, 1911. His body was taken home to be buried in Elwood, Indiana. As a sign of respect, all of the companies in the town closed for two hours in the afternoon of the day of his funeral. His daughter thought it was "untimely" that he died at age 51, because in the year before, he had written two books (The Science of Being Well and The Science of Getting Rich) and ran for public office.
