"Handbook of the New Thought" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the law of attraction, affirmations, meditation, mental healing of the body, and mind treatment. It is perfect for anyone who wants to change their life in any way. In clear language this book explains how the power of thought can be used to change your life and heal the body, mind and spirit, and thus eliminate fear, anxiety, worry, nervousness, pessimism and unbelief. The author explains what New Thought is and how it arose in the 1800s, and gives practical tips for using the ideas in daily life. The power of the mind is the most important asset each of us has. It doesn't matter if you are rich or poor, male or female, or where you live or anything else, each person has this great asset -- the power to change their thinking and thus change their life. Yes, we all find ourselves in particular circumstances that may appear to be holding us back for whatever reason, but we still have the awesome power to decide how to respond to those circumstances with our thoughts and actions. We can always affect the outcome. We always have choices. Often we forget just how much power that fact truly gives us. Dresser reminds us eloquently in this book, over and over again, just how important it is to remember this truth. "Handbook of the New Thought" has been unavailable in either print or digital form for many years. This new edition of "Handbook of the New Thought" is edited into gender neutral language to make it even more accessible to a 21st century audience.

Adolph Moses taught that the true religion of Moses is recognition of the one God for everyone everywhere, not a tribal religion forming the basis for an ethnic state in the Middle East. Moses emphasized the universal nature of Judaism and all true religion. He adopted the term "Yahvism" to emphasize his conviction that Judaism was neither a national nor a tribal religion. He wanted to attract non-Jews to Judaism, and he wanted to lure back Jews who had lost affection for their religion. Most of all he wanted to show that Judaism is a religion for all those who are interested in learning about it, and not a religion exclusively or even primarily for those born as Jews. His vision was a new Church of Humanity grounded in the universal vision of the biblical prophets and based on mutual respect, union and universal love. It is with his universal vision in mind that we present this selection of his writings edited into gender-neutral language, in recognition of Moses's desire to be a light to all people. This edition includes the 1885 Declaration of Principles that became the foundation of what came to be known as "Classical Reform Judaism," along with a new Introduction.

Thousands of American Jews were drawn to Christian Science and other New Thought teachings at the turn of the 20th century along with countless Christians. The growing popularity of New Thought teachings among American Jews concerned Jewish leaders of the time, including American Reform Rabbi Alfred Geiger Moses (1878-1956), who decided to do something about it. Seeing much in New Thought teachings that could be adapted to Judaism, once stripped of its Christian elements, Rabbi Moses first published Jewish Science in 1916. The author spends much time showing that the precepts of Christian Science and other New Thought denominations are drawn largely from the Hebrew scriptures. This redesigned edition includes an extensive anthology of Hebrew scripture quotations from a New Thought perspective, and a new introduction by the editor.

Long before the blockbuster 2006 movie and bestselling book "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne, and long before Esther and Jerry Hicks' "Law of Attraction," there was this seminal work of American practical spirituality by William Walker Atkinson. The text of this updated edition has been edited into gender neutral language in recognition of the author's desire to bring the insights of New Thought spirituality to all people. Gender neutral language is a subtle but important way to promote equality, and equality is at the core of Atkinson's thinking. This new, gender neutral edition will bring Atkinson's insights to a new generation of readers in need of these timeless insights.
