Wealth as a matter of method

First published in 1910 and reprinted here in 2018, Wallace D. Wattles’s book presents wealth-building through the framework now commonly associated with the Law of Attraction. It combines claims about attracting wealth and overcoming emotional barriers with advice on methods for pursuing financial success. The publisher identifies the book as an inspiration for a later work and film, but the central point here is Wattles’s own approach: financial achievement is presented as something shaped by thought and practice. The description does not detail the steps in that method, so this edition is best approached as an early statement of a personal-success philosophy, rather than as a sourced guide to current financial practice.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in early twentieth-century personal-success writing and the history of Law of Attraction ideas.
  • Readers exploring books that connect beliefs, emotional barriers, and the pursuit of wealth.

Book overview

2018 Reprint of 1910 Edition. With this seminal book, Wallace Wattles popularized the Law of Attraction, the powerful concept that inspired The Secret. The Science of Getting Rich explains how to attract wealth, overcome emotional barriers, and apply foolproof methods to bring financial success into your life. The Science of Getting Rich was credited by Rhonda Byrne as one of the inspirations for her popular 2006 film and 2007 book The Secret. As Byrne explained it on the web site of Oprah Winfrey, "Something inside of me had me turn the pages one by one, and I can still remember my tears hitting the pages as I was reading it. [...] It gave me a glimpse of The Secret. It was like a flame inside of my heart. And with every day since, it's just become a raging fire of wanting to share all of this with the world."
