_{“Positive Imaging: The Powerful way to change your life” by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, is not just another personality development book. When we reach the last page of the book, true to its tagline"The Powerful Way to Change Your Life", it would have changed the way we look our life. This book takes positive thinking one step further, Imaging positive things and picturing it would actually work is the central message of the book.}

_{Peale posts many quotes in between each chapter depicting the theme of the book, for example ”You are never defeated until you accept the image of defeat”. The author also convinces us through short stories in each chapter to prove that consistently picturing the best and not the worst will end up powerful forces working on it to bring it about.}

                _{The best thing I like about this book is that it not just emphasizes about positive thinking and imaging, it motivates the reader to have a goal, believe in it, work for it and imaging success in it and achieve it. And the books gives solution to all problems people faces in all aspects of life like money, mental, health, even marital.}

_{Overall this book it is not boring or dry like many other books of same genre, language is also simple, and comparatively Peale has made his book interesting by adding his own experiences, short quotes, stories, etc.}
