Other editions of book Think and Grow Rich

This is one of the best-selling self-help books of all time. Written during the Great Depression, against a backdrop of millions of people out of work and a looming world war, Napoleon Hill's magnum opus held out hope that life could get better. While not considered part of the New Thought movement, Hill drew on many of their concepts and techniques. He prefigured the 'Prosperity Consciousness' of present-day New Age thinkers. And a host of motivational writers and speakers have followed in his footsteps.A good part of Hill's book is simply the gospel of 20th century American Capitalism: work hard, have a firm handshake, get ahead by doing quality work, treat your customers with respect, anybody can become rich and/or powerful if they overcome their personal weaknesses.

However, the title of the book is 'Think and Grow Rich,' not 'Get Rich Quick': Hill insists that we take a very detailed personal inventory, and grow spiritually, in order to draw wealth our way. This involves a developing a high level of self-discipline and obeying the Delphic injunction to 'Know Thyself'. He also incorporates a lot of good, practical business advice: find new opportunities created by technological innovations, make a written plan and keep to it, don't be afraid to fail repeatedly. The secret is here, it is just simply the sum of parts rather than an explicit roadmap.Towards the end of the book he steps off a precipice and ventures into some very esoteric territory. He discusses harnessing Kundalini energy, manifesting psychic powers such as telepathy, tapping into higher consciousness, and getting in touch with the great minds of history, although, again, he is not too specific about how to accomplis

The Napoleon Hill Foundation received many requests from people wanting the original, unedited, 1937 copy of Think and Grow Rich. To satisfy those customers the Foundation reproduced Napoleon Hill’s personal copy of the first edition, printed in March of 1937. The book has the notation, “not to be loaned,” and signed: Annie Lou Hill (the wife of Dr. Hill). This personal copy of Dr. Hill’s was given to me by Dr. Charles W. Johnson, Chairman of the Napoleon Hill Foundation and a nephew of Napoleon Hill.It was Napoleon Hill who sent Dr. Johnson to medical school, and today he is a practicing cardiologist. Charlie refers to Napoleon Hill as “Uncle Nap” and will often makes the statement, “Uncle Nap would be proud of the Foundation today.” The original 1937 manuscript was written and edited with the assistance of Napoleon’s wife. In later years, the existing document was again edited by Dr. Hill. For example, the Foundation owns a 1958 edition that Hill edited personally. This did not lessen the book’s value in Hill’s judgment. Hill made the editing remarks in his own handwriting and the resulting 1960 edited edition has sold over 100 million copies making it the most read self-help book of all time. Think and Grow Rich sells more copies today than before Dr. Hill died in 1970.Now, a new and authoritative recording of this original, unedited, one-of-a-kind work, authorized by the Napoleon Hill Foundation is available.

The Foundation deeply appreciates the support of those of you who only purchase Napoleon Hill authorized books.

First published in 1937, "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill was a revolutionary inspiration in the self-help genre. After conducting two decades of research, during which Hill gathered both data and wisdom from the United States' leading financially successful men and women, he placed the resulting teachings into a single book for the first time. His work meant that every reader could take the information and use it to have the same chance at financial success as some of the nation's richest people. The idea for the landmark work started when Hill, a struggling journalist, was asked by famous industrialist Andrew Carnegie to compile a Philosophy of Personal Achievement. Hill interviewed over five-hundred people, including Thomas Edison, John Rockefeller, and Charles M. Schwab, compiling their experiences into a sort of handbook for success. The resulting work, "Think and Grow Rich," was first published during the Great Depression. The book is listed as the sixth best-selling paperback business book on "BusinessWeek Magazine's Best-Seller List," and it is still as significant as it was over seventy years ago. However, "Think and Grow Rich" was more than a mere get-rich-quick book for those in the business industry. Instead, Hill's philosophy helped guide readers to be prosperous in both life and happiness. Its teachings can be applied to any field of work and its success is attributed to the positive word of mouth popularity and rave reviews it received. Although some of his examples are not directly applicable to the modern era, the philosophy is as relevant today as it was over 75 years ago. Contained in this volume is a reprinting of the original first edition.
