• This edition includes the following editor’s introduction: James Allen, the philosopher who pioneered the self-help genre

Published posthumously in 1913, “Book of Meditations for Every Day in the Year” is a collection of inspirational thoughts and insights by British philosophical writer James Allen, intended to be meditated upon every day, with each day of the year having a different idea and subject for thoughtful consideration.
“Book of Meditations for Every Day in the Year” is a timeless volume, perfect for those looking for meditation topics that will help them live each day to the fullest.
Allen may truly be called the
Prophet of Meditation. In an age of strife, hurry, religious controversy, heated arguments, ritual and ceremony, he came with his message of Meditation, calling men away from the din and strife of tongues into the peaceful paths of stillness within their own souls. His writings had a deep influence of the current crop of self-help books.
