Prime 6 - Self help -- The Secret

In one of my classes, we are talking about "self-help" books, workshops, etc.  The whole industry of "Gurus" trying to sell the steps to success, the rules for being happy, the all-curing diet... You get the idea.  The underlying question is, with this type of self-help material:  Does it work; is it real?

The book "The Secret" is one of these types of best sellers.  It was a movie first, and then the book was released.  Here are three links:

(1) To some wikipedia information on the book:

(2) To the movie trailer:

(3) To a CBS debate between two experts with opposite views of "The Secret:"
