As a Woman Thinketh: Transcribed from the James Allen's Classic Dorothy J. Hulst

Dorothy Jean Hurst, a freelance writer, had as one of her favourite books 'As a Man Thinketh' by James Allen. In this short volume, Allen expressed his belief that an individual, through the power of thought, forms his or her own character and consequent happiness. Hulst was inspired by the content of Allen's book but tired of the mental excercise required to substitute feminine equivalents for masculine terms. Using a pencil, she crossed out all the masculine references, replacing them with feminine words. The result, 'As a Woman Thinketh'. allows women to identify directly and personally with Allen's concepts.
