Synopsis

2014 Reprint of 1909 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Thomas Troward (1847-1916) was an English author whose works influenced the New Thought Movement and mystic Christianity. William James characterized Troward's Edinburgh "Lectures on Mental Science" as "far and away the ablest statement of philosophy I have met, beautiful in its sustained clearness of thought and style, a really classic statement." According to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) archivist Nell Wing, early AA members were strongly encouraged to read Thomas Troward's Lectures. In the opening of the 2006 film "The Secret" introductory remarks credit Troward's philosophy with inspiring the movie and its production.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In commencing a course of lectures on Mental Science it is somewhat difficult for the lecturer to fix upon the best method of opening the subject. It can be approached from many sides each with some peculiar advantage of its own; but after careful deliberation it appears to me that for the purpose of the present course no better starting-point could be selected than the relation between Spirit and Matter.' (Excerpt)

Its purpose is to indicate the Natural Principles governing the relation between Mental Action and Material Conditions, and thus to afford the student an intelligible starting-point for the practical study of the subject.
