Wallace D. Wattles was born in the United States in 1860, shortly before the Civil War. Later in life, he began his tireless study of the religious beliefs and philosophies of the world. It was through this relentless examination of such philosophers as Descartes, Hegel, and Ralph Waldo Emerson that he developed his own principles, successfully applied them to his life, and shared them with the world in his innovative 1910 book, The Science of Getting Rich. He died one year later. Wattles’s ideas have lived on to inspire future generations to greatness. Ruth L. Miller served as associate professor at San Jose State University and as Director of Curriculum and Evaluation for Rogue Community College. She was ordained in the New Thought tradition and became the pastor of the Lifeways Center in Portland, Oregon. She is currently a traveling preacher, serving New Thought and Unitarian-Universalist churches in Oregon, Washington, and California.

"Perhaps the most important thing that separates Wattles' success
strategy from many other systems is his emphasis on spiritual
philosophy rather than self interest."--Anna Jedrziewski, "New Age
Retailer", March 2009
"Wattles offers techniques for getting in tune with one's deeper
self and thus creating a channel of communication between oneself
and universal energy. His is a gentle philosophy that excludes
competition, cheating, and lording it over one's fellows when one
has made it, and encourages cooperation."--"Publisher's Weekly"
