For more than a century, As a Man Thinketh has been one of the world's bestselling and most widely loved inspirational works. This special volume features a revised and updated edition of this immensely powerful meditation and--as an added bonus--an up-to-date version of the author's first book, From Poverty to Power.
James Allen offers his clear answer in As a Man Thinketh. His words have helped millions for more than a century --and they continue to point the true way to a better life for a troubled humanity.
Now, his beloved inspirational masterpiece is revised and updated for the twenty-first century. Arcane terms or references have been gently adapted to the present frame of reference so that Allen's message resonates as freshly today as it has for generations.
In addition, this volume features a special bonus: an updated edition of Allen's very first book, From Poverty to Power.
James Allen was born in Leicester, England, in 1864. He took his first job at age 15 to support his family, after his father was murdered while looking for work in America. Allen was employed as a factory knitter and a private secretary until the early twentieth century, when he became increasingly known for his motivational writing. His 1903 work As a Man Thinketh earned him worldwide fame as a prophet of inspirational thinking and influenced a who's-who of self-help writers, including Napoleon Hill, Dale Carnegie, and Norman Vincent Peale. Allen died at age 47 in 1912.
