The New Game of Life and How to Play It

The fourth book in the Atria Books/Beyond Words Library of Hidden Knowledge, a modernized version of one of the first works to make the Law of Attraction accessible to the general public: timeless guidance on the power of prosperity, intuition, relationships, and other perennial topics.As the latest classic in the Library of Hidden Knowledge series, Dr. Ruth L. Miller creates a fresh interpretation, re-writing the dense essays and affirmations of old for the modern reader of today. Author Florence Scovel Shinn, a dynamic and provocative teacher in the New Thought movement of the early 1900s, shares a distinct philosophy and practical approach that is made accessible to all with enlightening declarations and action-based advice. Each chapter is written in short digestible sections, addressing the Laws of Prosperity, the power of intuition, forgiveness, love, and other timeless topics. The Game of Life and How to Play It is full of simple and easy ways for readers to manifest the life they desire. The Library of Hidden Knowledge's presentation of Shinn's best-known work is quite different from any other edition of the book available. Dr. Miller offers modern explanations of each essay that address today's issues and include relevant exercises and summary points for each chapter. The original text is also included in the second part of the book.

Dr. Ruth L. Miller served as associate professor at San Jose State University and as Director of Curriculum and Evaluation for Rogue Community College. She was ordained in the New Thought tradition and became the pastor of the Lifeways Center in Portland, Oregon. She is currently a traveling preacher, serving New Thought and Unitarian-Universalist churches in Oregon, Washington, and California.
