After overcoming an illness by what he believed to be subliminal means, Robert Collier became fascinated with the power of the mind and how it may be used to create success in every area of life. Collier believed that one's subconscious mind is like a sleeping giant; once awoken it can bring fame, fortune and happiness. He set to work on a series of psychology texts and The Secret of the Ages, released in 1926, was the first to explore this theory. In this book, Collier plots the course his readers need to follow in order to achieve their ultimate goals. The book proved fantastically popular and sold over 300,000 copies. Many of his insights are still relevant today. Karen McCreadie's interpretation of The Secret of the Ages illustrates the timeless nature of Collier's theories. Bringing the book to life through 52 modern case studies, this brilliant interpretation of The Secret of the Ages is an entertaining and thought provoking accompaniment to one of the most famous books on self-help ever written.
