5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Manual for Abundance and Prosperity, August 14, 2006

By 

Wallace Wattles "DM WW" (Colorado, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Master Abundance And Prosperity: The Ancient Spiritual Keys to Success. The Master Key System Decoded and the Science of Getting Rich Unveiled (Paperback)

This author takes The original Great manuscript -- The Master Key System by Haanel and codifies the 24 parts into a wonderful executive summary and manual on the teachings of Haanel. The book also has a critique of the secret 4 parts that are hard to get (parts 25, 26, 27, and 28).

Moreover, this manuscript has a really cool bonus chapter and summary on the applied metaphysics of The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Wattles.

In sum, the books "brings it all together" for Haanel and Wattles and also contains a nifty metaphysical glossary in the back. Overall, it is a short, easy to read, super inspirational little book, and it is obvious that the author has done his homework.

This text is also a good source and supplement for persons interested in business leadership, building success on a spiritual level, Buddhist or Hindu Success Writings, Christian mysticism, and The philosophy of the great thinkers of success. A must buy if you want to go to the next level of your prosperity thinking.

Regards, DM

3.0 out of 5 stars Mixed feelings., March 26, 2007

By

This review is from: How to Master Abundance And Prosperity: The Ancient Spiritual Keys to Success. The Master Key System Decoded and the Science of Getting Rich Unveiled (Paperback)

This book has a fantastic and promising title . . . but, it just doesn't deliver enough.[..]

A good feature of this book is that the text is in large Arial font, printed on a slightly off-white paper (I personally think it is quite easy to read, no strain on the eyes at all. Although they could have done it without using Bold font - way too thick and harsh!)

The book is basically a short summary (about 58 pages) of two other books: "The Master Key System" by Charles F. Haanel and "The Science of Getting Rich" by Wallace D. Wattles.

The book has a few inconsistencies which are quite confusing. For example, on one page it says, in order to achieve your desires "be absorbed in the goal or object of your desires . . . a FEW MINUTES every day" and then, on another page, ". . . visualize and contemplate on your goals and ideas DAY AND NIGHT."

Also, the "bonus" section called "Critique and Summary of the Philosophy of Wallace Wattles", is not a critique at all. There is nowhere in it any criticizing, criticism, or critical comments on Mr. Wallace's work. What it really is, is a short (about 8 pages long) summary of concepts from the "Science of Getting Rich" book, peppered with some of Prof. Mentz's own ideas.

The book gives good general principles for materializing your desires, but does not provide a structured, practical, step-by-step clear method.

The section at the end called "Glossary", although a very useful section (it may even be the best 7½ pages in the book), is only a list of terms in paragraph form (and most of them are not even taken from the book itself!), without accompanying definitions.

I have mixed feelings recommending this book. Instead, if you are interested, go to self-improvement-ebooks.com and obtain the original versions in eBook format at a very reasonable cost (however, these are a much lengthier read). I especially enjoyed Wallace D. Wattles' Lessons in Constructive Science series contained in some of his collections.

3.0 out of 5 stars A great review, a poor introduction to the subject matter, July 3, 2007

This review is from: How to Master Abundance And Prosperity: The Ancient Spiritual Keys to Success. The Master Key System Decoded and the Science of Getting Rich Unveiled (Paperback)

I believe that this book is a great review for students who understand both Haanel and Wattles. The aphorisms and parables will trigger a resonance if you already undersatnd and appreciate their teachings.
If you don't, this book will seem like random babbling. So if you're a begginer start with a free copy of The Science of Getting Rich then once you feel comfortable, get the Master Key.
Then use this book as a travel companion of "greatest hits." I feel that this book is not foundational but a commentary and refresher course on two of the great teachers on this subject.
