Autorenporträt
Samuel Smiles, (1812-1904), autor escocés y reformador del gobierno. Promovió la idea de que más progreso vendría de nuevas actitudes que de nuevas leyes, y sus ideas tuvieron efectos duraderos en el pensamiento político británico. Smiles, uno de los 11 niños que se quedaron sin padre en 1832, aprendió el significado de la autosuficiencia. Dejó la escuela a la edad de 14 años y se convirtió en aprendiz de un médico, para luego estudiar medicina en la Universidad de Edimburgo. Más tarde abandonó la práctica médica por el periodismo. Fue un ferviente defensor del progreso material basado en la empresa individual y el libre comercio. Su libro Ayúdate, fue el resultado de una serie de conferencias sobre superación personal impartidas a hombres jóvenes. Se habían vendido 250.000 copias a finales de siglo y se tradujo ampliamente. Smiles escribió muchos otros libros, principalmente biografías.
