The book is influenced by Wallace Wattles' 1910 book The Science of Getting Rich, which Byrne received from her daughter during a time of personal trauma, in 2004. The Secret was released as a film in March 2006, and later the same year as a book. Scientific claims made in the book have been rejected by a range of critics, pointing out that the book has no scientific foundation. The book has sold 30 million copies worldwide and has been translated into 50 languages. The book alleges energy as assurance of its effectiveness. It is based on the belief of the pseudoscientific law of attraction, which claims that thoughts can change a person's life directly. The Secret is a 2006 self-help book by Rhonda Byrne, based on the earlier film of the same name.
