Product Description
by Rick Collingwood (Author)
It's not easy to formulate an entire new philosophy let alone write a book about it, and philosophy can be terribly boring if it is no more than an inflated ego trying to appear intelligent by burbling postulations or possibilities. Besides that there have been too many wise and "to the point" philosophers in the past to consider attempting writing a new one. It was 1991 when I began writing the initial edition of this book and as I continued gathering knowledge and clearer understandings I added my new perceptions until it was eventually published in 2002. This is the third edition since the original version was updated and republished again in 2005 and 2010. In this book I have combined some simple well proven philosophies from some of the great thinkers from the past; thinkers such as Wallace Wattles, James Allan, Napoleon Hill and William Walker Atkinson. Up until this day their collective insights have changed the lives of tens of millions of people, using the simple time tested methods taught by these men. In a blending of the old with the new, for the purpose of relevance, I have also citied some more modern writers and scientific studies.
