The Secret is book version of highly successful motivational movie by the same name. The editor claims that the book contains the ‘secret’ that existed from time immemorial and was kept confined to a few people. The list of the people who knew the secret includes great minds of art, science, politics, religion, and so on. This book reveals the secret and makes it available to all, so that they can transform their lives and achieve success and happiness.

The secret is a principle called the law of attraction and uses the power of one’s mind to transform one’s life. The book explains the principle and shows how to use it to change your life. The book contains quotations by the ‘masters’ (the people who have successfully used the law of attraction) and real life stories. The contributors of the book include highly successful men and women of our times and the list includes John Assaraf, Michael Bernard Beckwith, Lee Brower, Jack Canfield, Dr. John F. Demartini, Marie Diamond, Mike Dooley, Bob Doyle, Hale Dwoskin, Morris Goodman, Dr. John Gray, Dr. John Hagelin, Bill Harris, Dr. Ben Johnson, Loral Langemeier, Lisa Nichols, Bob Proctor, James Arthur Ray, David Schirmer, Marci Shimoff, Dr. Joe Vitale, Dr. Denis Waitley, Neale Donald Walsch, and Fred Alan Wolf, Ph.D.

The book explains the various techniques to tap and unleash the potential of your mind. In that way the book is worth reading. The secret is nothing but ‘old wisdom in new bottle’. The same philosophy can be found in almost all religious books from Vedas, Gita, Khuran, Bible, etc. and in the works of ancient and new philosophers. So what the book reveals is nothing new or groundbreaking. But it is all about using the power of human mind and positive thinking to change one’s attitude and outlook towards life in a positive way.

The above fact by no means reduces the value of the book. It is an excellent book where a brilliant and powerful idea is brilliantly presented and explained. It is a must read for everyone and I am sure that it will definitely have some positive influence on your life.
