Thought Power or Radio Mentalism — William Walker Atkinson / Edward E. Beals — 1922

In Thought Power, or Radio-Mentalism (1922), William Walker Atkinson and Edward E. Beals examine the idea that thought may radiate beyond the individual mind and influence attention, feeling, and conduct.

Published as the eighth volume of the twelve-volume Personal Power Books, the work places thought transmission, suggestion, visualization, concentration, and subconscious activity within the authors’ larger system of personal development.

The term “radio-mentalism” reflects the technological language of its era, using radio as a metaphor for the transmission and reception of thought. The book is valuable as a document of the period when New Thought, popular psychology, and psychical research frequently overlapped.
