Publisher's summary

Within this short book is the one secret that will deliver you to greatness.

We all dream of being celebrated, rewarded, and recognized - in short, of being great. But so few people actually attain greatness. Why? In The Science of Being Great, legendary success writer Wallace D. Wattles demonstrates exactly how you can move from merely thinking of yourself as great to really being great in the world. In this book is the one principle that leads to greatness. Don't you want to be rewarded in your work? Don't you want to be seen as a leader? Don't you deserve respect? When you finish this brief program - easily listened to in the space of a lunch break - these things will be in reach, and your life will restart on a new footing.

New Thought author and historian Mitch Horowitz, who introduces and abridges this Condensed Classics edition, explores why this short book was Wattles' greatest. Discover the powerful, practical lesson that this life-changing classic can place in your hands.

outstanding

Narrated well, with narrator adding background on author, which makes book more interesting. This whole New Thought era is fascinating. I wish Mitch could do some Emerson, thats done in modern English.

Powerful message, clear narration.

Wattles’ well articulated thoughts on personal strength (which is ultimately, as he points out, not entirely personal) are so inspiring that I will listen to this recording over and over again. The whole recording is under an hour, still it should be said that the narrator has a clear and pleasant voice throughout.
