An outstanding book adapting Norman Vincent Peale's dynamic principles to meet the challenges of the 21st Century * Ken Blanchard *
Born in Ohio, USA, in 1898, Norman Vincent Peale grew up helping support his family by delivering newspapers, working in a grocery store, and selling pots and pans door to door, but later was to become one of the most influential clergymen in the 20th-century. Educated at Ohio Wesleyan University and Boston University, he went on to become a reporter on the Findlay, Ohio, Morning Republic prior to entering the ministry and went on to author some 40 books. Peale confessed that as a youth he had 'the worst inferiority complex of all', and developed his positive thinking/positive confession philosophy just to help himself. He died in 1993 aged 95. Scott W. Ventrella has worked closely with the Peale Center to develop a series of exciting business programmes on which this book is based. He lives in the United States.
