Summary: ONe of Ernest Holme's best
Comment: This is one of my favourite Ernest Holmes books besides "This Thing Called You" and "Living The Science Of Mind".
It is considerably thinner book compared to the 'Science Of Mind', and it is concise, easy to understand, and it drives home the solutions to your everyday challenges. On the left pages are the Challenges or 'problems' people face, and the right page will show you the solution- how to adjust your attitude and mind to respond to such a challenge, and bring results.
it is amazing how such a thin book can be so inspiring. THIS IS NOT A RELIGIOUS BOOK. No rituals, no dogma. Only wisdoms of the ages that works.
Ernest Holmes' philosophy are derived from Christian and Eastern (ancient Hindu, Taoist, etc) thought. His view on religion is wise, a deeply spiritual man. In fact, unlike most religious/wpiritual writers, he is one of the very few authors that can talk about religion and philosophy without any dogma, rituals, nor bias against any other religion/philosophy.

Summary: A highly accessible literary and spiritual TREASURE
Comment: Thoughts Are Things is a little (about 100 pages if you include the index) masterwork. If you haven't ever read any of Ernest Holmes' writings on his landmark Science of Mind philosophy, this is for you -- a perfect, easy-to-understand introduction to this "affirmative prayer" philosophy, divided into various categories. If you're into theology, and a fan of Holmes writings, this has to be his most understandable, enjoyable, and easiest-to-wear-out-by-multiple-readings book.
Why? It's because of the top-notch organization, editing and brilliance of the selected Holmes passages coupled with additional material by Willis Kinnear. The book's four main parts are The World Around You, The Life You Live, Your Mental and Spiritual Health, and the Future Is Yours. Each Challenge is on the left page of the book and written in one easy-to-understand page by Kinnear. Each one-page (spiritual) Solution is on the book's right page, next to the Challenge, and it is culled from Holmes' extensive writings with an explanation plus an affirmation.
How is this useful? Thoughts Are Things not only outlines a problem but gives you the answer -- and a superb affirmation/prayer for immediate use. If you use it as prayer, there are a wide variety of topics. If you're not into prayer but are into affirmations, this book is also for you.
Holme's basic philosophy is that "there is a God-Power at the center of everyone's being, a Power that knows neither lack, limitation, nor fear, sickness, disquiet nor imperfection." But bad experiences, negative thinking and fear can checkmate a person's greater good....in other words, Thoughts Are Things so when negative thinking arises "you must of necessity change the basic pattern of your thought." The reason: negative thinking has mental, physical and spiritual consequences: it can lead to a downward, negative spiral, while focusing instead on the reality (that positive God-center and its total power) can generate many good things.
Thoughts Are Things is a manual to combat negative thinking, an antidote for hopelessness, and a roadmap for hope and fulfilling goals. PERSONAL NOTE: I'm not a member of the Church of Religious Science (but admire what it does). I started reading Holmes' more complex works in a time of crisis -- and this book was recommended to me by someone during a more recent crisis where I almost lost hope. I have read it, underlined it...and each day I refer to it.
And it TRULY helps. Believe me: Thoughts ARE Things.
