2010 Reprint of 1910 Edition. Wattles emphasized the naturalness of abundance. The author took this to its logical conclusion by saying that a person could not really fulfill their potential if they had to struggle financially. In fact, he argued, the evolution of the world depended on each of us seeking riches in an honest way. Wattle's classic work is a metaphysical work that deals with a very earthly issue--wealth and how to obtain it.
