Thought Power: Its Control and Culture

The Introduction may offer some difficulties to the lay reader, and may perhaps be skipped by such at the first reading.

And those who would fulfill the maxim "Know thyself" must not shrink from a little mental exertion, nor must expect mental food to drop ready-cooked from the sky into a lazily opened mouth.
