Think and Grow Rich has been called the "Granddaddy of All
Motivational Literature." It was the first book to boldly ask, "What
makes a winner?" The man who asked and listened for the answer, Napoleon
Hill, is now counted in the top ranks of the world's winners himself.The
most famous of all teachers of success spent "a fortune and the better
part of a lifetime of effort" to produce the "Law of Success" philosophy
that forms the basis of his books and that is so powerfully summarized
in this one.
In the original Think and Grow Rich, published in 1937, Hill draws
on stories of Andrew Carnegie, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and other
millionaires of his generation to illustrate his principles. In the
updated version, Arthur R. Pell, Ph.D., a nationally known author,
lecturer, and consultant in human resources management and an expert in
applying Hill's thought, deftly interweaves anecdotes of how
contemporary millionaires and billionaires, such as Bill Gates, Mary Kay
Ash, Dave Thomas, and Sir John Templeton, achieved their wealth.
Outmoded or arcane terminology and examples are faithfully refreshed to
preclude any stumbling blocks to a new generation of readers.
