Synopsis

This volume is the second of a series, the first of which is “The Science Of Getting Rich.” As that book is intended solely for those who want money, so this is for those who want health, and who want a practical guide and handbook, not a philosophical treatise. It is an instructor in the use of the universal Principle of Life, and my effort has been to explain the way in so plain and simple a fashion that the reader, though he may have given no previous study to New Thought or metaphysics, may readily follow it to perfect health. While retaining all essentials, I have carefully eliminated all non-essentials; I have used no technical, abstruse, or difficult language, and have kept the one point in view at all times. As its title asserts, the book deals with science, not speculation. The monistic theory of the universe - the theory that matter, mind, consciousness, and life are all manifestations of one substance - is now accepted by most thinkers; and if you accept this theory, you cannot deny the logical conclusions you will find herein. Best of all, the methods of thought and action prescribed have been tested by the author in his own case, and in the case of hundreds of others during twelve years of practice, with continuous and unfailing success. I can say of the Science of Being Well that it works; and that wherever its laws are complied with, it can no more fail to work that the science of geometry can fail to work. If the tissues of your body have not been so destroyed that continued life is impossible, you can get well; and if you will think and act in a Certain Way, you will get well. 100 pages.

About this title

About the Author:

Wallace D. Wattles (1860–1911) was an American ‘New Thought’ author, who remained obscure for a long time for personal reasons; Nevertheless, his writings have remained in print and heavily quoted across the self-help and New Thought movements. Wattles had made admirable wealth by the time he died at 51 years of age. He had enjoyed good health except for the short-lived frailty that resulted before he died. When his body was transported for burial in his hometown of Elwood in Indiana, businesses closed for two hours in his respect during the day of his burial. Wattles practiced the art of ‘Creative Visualisation’ where he formed mental images or visual pictures in his mind and worked tirelessly and practically to accomplish the realisation of these visions. Wattles influence on the self-help and New Thought movement is very extensive. The creator of The Secret book and film, Rhonda Byrne, refers to the Science of Getting Rich by Wattles as being her main inspiration. In fact, the Science of Getting Rich has remained in publication through countless publishers for over 100 years and gone through diverse editions.
