About this audiobook
The Wisdom of Wallace D. Wattles Trilogy gathers three seminal works of American New Thought: The Science of Getting Rich, The Science of Being Well, and The Science of Being Great. Written in a direct, aphoristic, and practical style, these texts present prosperity, health, and personal excellence as outcomes of disciplined thought, purposeful action, and alignment with a creative universal principle. Situated within the early twentieth-century literature of mental science and self-culture, the trilogy blends metaphysical idealism with pragmatic instruction. Wallace D. Wattles (1860–1911) was shaped by the reformist, spiritual, and entrepreneurial currents of his age. Associated with the New Thought movement, he wrote for readers seeking liberation from poverty, illness, and social limitation through a transformed conception of mind and will. His own interest in economic justice, personal development, and spiritual law informs the urgency and confidence of these books. This complete edition is recommended for readers interested in the origins of modern self-help, prosperity philosophy, and mind-body thought. Whether approached as historical document, spiritual manual, or practical guide, Wattles's trilogy remains a lucid and influential statement of the belief that human beings can consciously participate in shaping their circumstances.
