About the author

Charles Webster Leadbeater was an influential member of the Theosophical Society, author on occult subjects and co-initiator with J.I. Wedgwood of the Liberal Catholic Church.

Originally a priest of the Church of England, his interest in spiritualism caused him to end his affiliation with Anglicanism in favour of the Theosophical Society, where he became an associate of Annie Besant. He became a high-ranking officer of the society, but resigned in 1906 amid a scandal. Accusations of his detractors were never proven and, with Besant's assistance, he was readmitted a few years later. Leadbeater went on to write over 69 books and pamphlets that examined in detail the hidden side of life as well as maintain regular speaking engagements. His efforts on behalf of the society assured his status as one of its leading members until his death in 1934.

This book is an excerpt from "Hidden Side of Things"

This book is $4, and is a short excerpt from Leadbeater's book "Hidden Side of Things," which cost $ 1, and which contains many other topics of interest.
I thought this book would have a more expanded discussion regarding thought powers , a chapter/ topic in "Hidden Side of Things," but alas, " Power and Use of Thought" is merely an excerpt from the book "Hidden Side of Things."
I definitely feel cheated. Aside from that, Leadbeater's work is fascinating.
