William Walker Atkinson's 'The Power of Concentration (Complete Edition)' is a timeless self-help book that explores the concept of concentration and its immense power to achieve success in various aspects of one's life. Written in a clear and concise style, Atkinson provides practical exercises and techniques to improve focus, mental clarity, and productivity. This book is a must-read for those looking to enhance their concentration skills and achieve their goals in a fast-paced world. Atkinson's literary context can be traced back to the New Thought movement, where he was known for his works on psychology, personal development, and the power of the mind. His deep understanding of human psychology and motivation shines through in 'The Power of Concentration,' making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to harness the power of the mind. I highly recommend this book to individuals looking to improve their focus, achieve their goals, and unlock their full potential in both personal and professional endeavors.

We all know that in order to accomplish a certain thing we must concentrate. It is of the utmost value to learn how to concentrate. To make a success of anything you must be able to concentrate your entire thought upon the idea you are working out. Do not become discouraged, if you are unable to hold your thought on the subject very long at first. There are very few that can. It seems a peculiar fact that it is easier to concentrate on something that is not good for us, than on something that is beneficial. This tendency is overcome when we learn to concentrate consciously. If you will just practice a few concentration exercises each day you will find you will soon develop this wonderful power.

Nearly every day brings news of another merger or acquisition involving the companies that control our food supply. Just how concentrated has this system become? At almost every key stage of the food system, four firms alone control 40% or more of the market, a level above which these companies have the power to drive up prices for consumers and reduce their rate of innovation. Researchers have identified additional problems resulting from these trends, including negative impacts on the environment, human health, and communities. This book reveals the dominant corporations, from the supermarket to the seed industry, and the extent of their control over markets. It also analyzes the strategies these firms are using to reshape society in order to further increase their power, particularly in terms of their bearing upon the more vulnerable sections of society, such as recent immigrants, ethnic minorities and those of lower socioeconomic status. Yet this study also shows that these trends are not inevitable. Opposed by numerous efforts, from microbreweries to seed saving networks, it explores how such opposition has encouraged the most powerful firms to make small but positive changes.
