| Summary | "The Science of Getting Rich" by W. D. Wattles is a practical manual on personal finance and wealth-building, written in the early 20th century. The book discusses the idea that acquiring wealth is not solely a matter of hard work or talent, but rather a science that involves specific principles and actions. It posits that everyone has a right to be rich and that understanding the science of getting rich is essential to achieving financial success. The opening of the book establishes a foundational belief that wealth is necessary for achieving one's highest potential and contributing to society. Wattles argues against the notion that poverty is virtuous and emphasizes that to thrive physically, mentally, and spiritually, individuals require resources. He introduces the concept that there is a "Certain Way" to think and act to attract wealth, which will be further explored in the subsequent chapters. The author invites readers to embrace this science without studying the philosophical underpinnings, challenging them to take action based on faith and the principles laid out in the book.
