The Science of Getting Rich is a practical manual. As Wallace Wattles states in his Preface, "It is intended for the men and women whose most pressing need is for money; who wish to get rich first, and philosophize afterward." This is a classic in the New Thought genre on how to use spiritual laws and the power of the mind in order to mold your circumstances and, specifically, your finances. Wattles wrote this book in the hopes that his readers would take accept his statements on faith and by carrying them out without fear or hesitation, prove their validity. His promise: "Every man or woman who does this will certainly get rich; for the science herein applied is an exact science, and failure is impossible." A classic work in wealth development from the inside out.
