Publisher's Summary

Every Man His Own University written by Russell Herman Conwell (February 15, 1843 – December 6, 1925) was an American Baptist minister, orator, philanthropist, lawyer, and writer.

Conwell's capacity to establish Temple University and his other civic projects largely derived from the income that he earned from this speech. The book has been regarded as a classic of New Thought literature since the 1870s. After Conwell's death, proceeds from this speech were dedicated to the Sunday Breakfast Association, a homeless shelter in Philadelphia.

Originally published in 1917. The lecture consists of six parts:

I. Every Man's University

II. Animals and "The Least Things"

III. The Bottom Rung

IV. Home Reading

V. Thoughtfulness

VI. Instincts and Individuality

Other works by Conwell include:

Every Man His Own University

Acres of Diamonds

Increasing Personal Efficiency

The Key to Success

Health Healing and Faith

Praying for Money

Subconscious Religion
