The masterwork of James Allen, As a Man Thinketh demonstrates the
supreme power of thought to change our outlook, attainments and
destiny. Embarking on an exploration of the mind's powers, James
Allen discusses how thinking influences major facets of action,
both internal and in the world around us. Writing plainly but
profoundly, the author demonstrates the sheer influence that
thinking habits have upon our lives. The author explains his
overarching belief that when a person changes how they think, their
lives will reflect this difference - the attainment of things such
as joy, material or other successes and inner peace represent but a
fraction of the possibilities. Philosophical and motivational, this
book has long occupied the shelves of millions. While short, the
text represents a wellspring of value, useful to refer back to and
understand time and again.

Public Opinion is Walter Lippmann's groundbreaking work which
demonstrates how individual beliefs are swayed by stereotypes, the
mass media, and political propaganda. The book opens with the
notion that democracy in the age of super fast communications is
obsolete. He analyses the impact of several phenomena, such as the
radio and newspapers, to support his criticisms of the
sociopolitical situation as it stands. He famously coins the term
'manufactured consent', for the fomenting of views which ultimately
work against the interests of those who hold them. Lippmann
contends that owing to the masses of information flung at the
population on a daily basis, opinions regarding entire groups in
society are being reduced to simple stereotypes. The actual
complexity and nuance of life, Lippmann contends, is undermined by
the ever-faster modes of communication appearing regularly.
