James Allen effectively launched the self-help movement in 1902 with the publication of As a Man Thinketh, outlining his belief in the transformative power of thought, the basis for such works as Rev. Norman Vincent Peale's The Power of Positive Thinking and Rhonda Byrne's hit book and movie, The Secret. AS WE THINK, SO WE ARE presents the original text of some of Allen's most powerful essays along with modern adaptations by Dr. Ruth Miller. Using concise, easy-to-understand language, Dr. Miller brings Allen's powerful message to today's readers.
