Average customer review:Product Description
Neville Goddard (1905-1972) was among the last century’s most articulate and charismatic purveyors of the philosophy generally called New Thought. He wrote ten books under the solitary penname Neville, and was a popular speaker on metaphysical themes from the late 1930s until his death in 1972. In New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, he addressed crowded church pews and packed auditoriums at the peak of his career. He had a radio program and, for a short time, an inspirational television show broadcast from Los Angeles in the mid-1950s. His books and pamphlets were sold at lectures, and he freely allowed students to tape his addresses without charge – tapes that continue to informally spread his message today. For all the recent talk of America being a faith-based nation, it was this iconoclastic foreigner from Barbados, West Indies who lived out the promise of religious freedom in a manner, perhaps, that a Benjamin Franklin or Thomas Paine would have smiled upon. It is in Neville that one finds a truly American spiritual figure: an innovator, a nonconformist, someone who dared to live by the inner light of his ideas.

About the Author
Born in Barbados, West Indies, Neville Goddard (1905-1972) came to the United States to study drama at the age of seventeen. In 1932 he gave up the theater to devote his attention to his studies in mysticism when he began his lecture career in New York City. After traveling throughout the country, he eventually made his home in Los Angeles where, in the late 1950’s, he gave a series of talks on television, and for many years, lectured regularly to capacity audiences at the Wilshire Ebell Theater. Although Neville’s career peaked in the late 1950’s and early 60’s, his message continues to find a place in the hearts of spiritual readers throughout the world today. Neville Goddard was one of the more quietly dramatic and supremely influential teachers in the New Thought field for many years.

A collection of great writings
This is a new release by Devorss books, a collection of Neville Goddard's writings. It consists of his previous books "Law and Promise", "Seedtime and Harvest", and "Resurrection". While the writing of Neville retain's their magic, Devorss seems to have printed this book in a rush, with several typos. Some silly things like "Imaging Creates Reality" rather than the correct term Neville used "Imagining Creates Reality" (note the title to the first chapter already contains a typo). BUt over the book, there are a few more, maybe not more than 10, some are like "f" which should have been "of", etc. (We should bear in mind most reprints of popular books always have typos in them, perhaps there is not anyone to proofread old books.)
The good thing is this new publishing gives the old collection a new type face, which makes it look really good and modern.
Overall if you are not fussy about a few typos, this book is a gem for those looking for spiritual meaning in life. The only thing Neville's books teach is that 'Imagination creates events of our life, and it is the sole cause of events'. The first book in this collection "Law and Promise" contains real cases one after another of how imagination creates man's wildest fancy.
I myself have benefited from discoveriing Neville, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, applied what he teaches, and I have many experiences in using pure imagination to create things I want in life - a perfect job, a perfect apartment to live in with cheap rent, getting the perfect co-tenants, attracting relationships etc.
Fantastic information
It has to be said that as a mystic Neville is in a whole different dimension. Fabulous information with biblical references included but not so much that a non-Christian would be put off by it. His teachings on the power of the imagination are life-altering. This is a must-read for any metaphysician. Peace and love!
$1.000.000.000,00 book!!!

Thank You Neville Goddard!
Best Wishes to all readers! :)
