Think And Grow Rich By Napoleon Hill: Better The Original 1937 Unedited Edition Or The Shorter One?

[Ray]

Hey guys, 

So, I want read sooooo many personal development book this summer and I was thinking to read the classic Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, but I would like to have an info from you guys that have already read it:

Is the difference between the Original 1937 Unedited Edition Think And Grow Rich (381 pages) is so radical/important from the "normal edition" (114 pages) ?

i remember this book, i read it many years ago.  and this is what i have learned from experience since that time.  one can program themselves to do many things and be many things but one cannot program themselves to be an enlightened and liberated being.  if you are working on personal growth, and planning for a future, then programing can be a huge aid in that and books like this will help do that, but all of that is part of the dream,  but one can only play the role of the dreamer until they awaken to the reality of who and what they are and most often there is a lot of time, inbetween, so make the best of what you can make the best of,  until you are able to do more.

There are several editions of that book. Actually think and grow rich is a condensed version of hill's earlier book "The Law of success" which is a thousand page book to which he dedicated most of his life to. Of course, I haven't read all the versions of think and grow rich but I'd say you go for the classic edition as the new ones also contain the text from the classic plus additional commentaries and examples.
