Reseña del editor:

"When you start in the "New Thought" do not expect sudden illumination. Do not imagine that you are to become perfectly well, perfectly cheerful, successful, and a healer, in a few days. Remember all growth is slow. Mushrooms spring up in a night, but oaks grow with deliberation and endure for centuries. Mental and spiritual power must be gained by degrees." -Ella Wheeler Wilcox

"One of the greatest literary success in the New Thought world." -Publishers Weekly

"Mrs. Wilcox is a lovely writer and holds the interest of her readers to the last. Persons who wish a clear, concise primary treatise on the New Thought would do well to get a copy of this work." -Life: A Monthly Magazine of Christian Metaphysics

"It gives good, healthy, and practical advice on thirty and more subjects, many of vital importance, which are treated with full knowledge and precision; and, furthermore, it may be added that there is not an iota of pessimism in it from beginning to end, and that is more that can be said of many present-day psychical works." -The Publishers' Circular and Booksellers' Record

"The author gives in the simple, practical style which has marked her writings in the newspaper, many practical, helpful suggestions toward a poised life. It is an everyday philosophy that she writes about; an attitude of mind which shall enable one to rise above the petty trials of daily life and find only happiness in all around us. If her teachings could be lived in every home the nation would be stronger and better in every way." -American Motherhood

Born on November 5th 1850 in Johnstown, Wisconsin, Ella Wheeler was the youngest of four children. She began to write as a child and by the time she graduated was already well known as a poet throughout Wisconsin. Regarded more as a popular poet than a literary poet her most famous work 'Solitude' reflects on a train journey she made where giving comfort to a distressed fellow traveler she wrote how the others grief imposed itself for a time on her 'Laugh and the world laughs with you, Weep and you weep alone'. It was published in 1883 and was immensely popular. The following year, 1884, she married Robert Wilcox. They lived for a time in New York before moving to Connecticut. Their only child, a son, died shortly after birth. Here we publish one The Heart Of The New Thought, her view and philosophical take on world that so endeared her to her audience.
