A propos de l’auteur
William Walker Atkinson (1862–1932) was a prolific writer, attorney, merchant, and publisher, who became an influential figure in the New Thought movement. He is best known for his works on psychology, New Thought philosophy, and the mysteries of the mind. Atkinson pursued a successful legal career before mental and emotional hardships spurred his interest in mental and spiritual healing. His book, ‘Your Mind and How to Use It: A Manual of Practical Psychology’ (1911), encapsulates his deep exploration into the human mind, and it exemplifies his broader literary style, which blends self-help with psychology and esoteric wisdom. In Atkinson’s writings, one discovers a persistent thread of empowering the individual through self-discovery and the harnessing of one’s mental faculties. His literary output was vast and varied, often writing under pseudonyms such as Yogi Ramacharaka and Theron Q. Dumont to explore themes of spirituality and personal power. Atkinson’s legacy lies in his ability to synthesize Eastern and Western thought and to present complex ideas in an accessible manner to the lay reader. His influence is seen throughout the New Thought Movement, with his works continuing to inspire those interested in the transformative power of the mind.
