The Power of Concentration : How to Acquire It — Eustace Miles — 1923

The Power of Concentration: How to Acquire It, represented here by the 1923 edition, is Eustace Miles’s practical study of attention, memory, relaxation, and purposeful mental training.

Miles developed the work in response to students who wanted greater efficiency in study, athletics, business, and ordinary life. He argues, however, that concentration should not be treated as an end in itself: the quality of the purpose toward which attention is directed matters as much as intensity.

The book considers relaxation, bodily condition, the subconscious, memory, habit, and exercises for gathering scattered attention into steady use.
