The Science of Getting Rich (The Unabridged Classic by Wallace D. Wattles) (Annotated): Enriched Edition. New Thought Prosperity, Positive Thinking, and the Philosophy of Abundance

The Science of Getting Rich is a concise yet influential work of early twentieth-century New Thought literature, presenting wealth not as a matter of chance or competition but as the result of disciplined thought, purposeful action, and alignment with universal principles. Written in a direct, aphoristic style, the book blends practical instruction with metaphysical conviction, reflecting an era fascinated by self-culture, mental science, and the moral legitimacy of prosperity. Wallace D. Wattles, an American writer associated with the New Thought movement, drew upon currents of transcendentalism, Christian idealism, and popular metaphysics to formulate his philosophy of creative abundance. His own engagement with questions of poverty, labor, and personal development informs the book's earnest insistence that material success can serve human flourishing when pursued constructively rather than selfishly. This unabridged classic is recommended for readers interested in the intellectual roots of modern self-help, prosperity teaching, and motivational literature. While its metaphysical claims invite critical reflection, its central emphasis on clarity of purpose, gratitude, imagination, and decisive action remains historically significant and personally provocative.
