About the author -- Excerpt from the Wikipedia:
William W. Atkinson was a very important and influential American figure in the early days of the New Thought Movement. He was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, as well as an occultist and an American pioneer of New Thought.
Atkinson's 1906 book, Thought Vibration: The Law of Attraction in the Thought World, is associated with the thinking behind the phenomena surrounding the 2006 movie, The Secret, which gained widespread attention in the media from Saturday Night Live to The Oprah Winfrey Show in the United States.
Atkinson pursued a business career from 1882 onwards and in 1894 he was admitted as an attorney to the Bar of Pennsylvania. While he gained much material success in his profession as a lawyer, the stress and over-strain eventually took its toll, and during this time he experienced a complete physical and mental breakdown, and financial disaster. He looked for healing and in the late 1880s he found it with New Thought. From mental and physical wreck and financial ruin, he wrought perfect health, mental vigor and material prosperity, which he attributed to the application of the principles of New Thought.
