A propos de l’auteur
William Walker Atkinson (1862–1932) was a pivotal figure in the early 20th-century’s New Thought movement. A lawyer by trade, he underwent a period of personal crisis followed by a transformational philosophical awakening that led him toward writing and spirituality. Atkinson shifted his focus to religious and metaphysical subjects, eventually becoming an influential writer under several pseudonyms, including Yogi Ramacharaka and Theron Q. Dumont. Atkinson’s most comprehensive work, ‘PERSONAL POWER (All 12 Volumes), ‘ encapsulates his philosophy that personal development and the harnessing of one’s mental powers are the keys to success in life. He propounded that thoughts have power and that concentrated mental force could be harnessed to improve not only individual lives but also influence the world at large. Atkinson’s literary style combines pragmatic advice with esoteric wisdom, often incorporating the principles of mind over matter, the law of attraction, and the significance of cultivating the will. His contributions to the New Thought and self-help literature were significant, providing a foundation for many subsequent authors in similar genres, blending psychology, spirituality, and success training in works that continue to be referenced and utilized in modern self-improvement programs.
