This book from Atria Books / Beyond Words is an English medium (अंग्रेज़ी माध्यम) title by Rhonda Byrne, meant for readers of self-help, motivation and personal growth (आत्म-विकास). < cite index="101-1">The Secret was published in 2006 and grew out of the film of the same name released earlier that year; it is built on the law of attraction — the idea that thought alone can shape the circumstances of a person's life. < cite index="104-1">The book's claim is that fragments of one great secret have lain scattered for centuries through old poetry, literature, religions and philosophies, and that here they are gathered together for the first time. Across its chapters the reader is shown how to apply the idea to every part of life — money, health, relationships, happiness and everyday dealings with people — and how to recognise a powerful force within themselves that has so far gone untapped. It also carries the teachings of present-day speakers who say they used this knowledge to gain health, wealth and contentment, with their accounts used to argue that illness can be healed, wealth can be built, problems can be solved and things thought impossible can be reached. < cite index="102-1">Byrne assembled a team of writers, theologians, teachers, film-makers, designers and publishers who together carried the book to the world, among them John Assaraf, Michael Bernard Beckwith, Lee Brower and Jack Canfield. < cite index="93-1">It has since been translated into fifty languages with over 25 million copies in print worldwide, stayed on the New York Times bestseller list for more than 200 weeks, and was named by USA Today among the top 20 bestselling books of a fifteen-year period; the author followed it with The Power in 2010 and The Magic in 2012, both also bestsellers. The whole book is written in English in the Roman script.
