    Samuel Smiles (1812-1904) was a Scottish author and government reformer. Although he campaigned on a Chartist platform, he concluded that more progress would come from new attitudes than from new laws. His masterpiece, Self-Help (1859), promoted thrift and claimed that poverty was caused largely by irresponsible habits, while also attacking materialism and laissez-faire government. It has been called "the bible of mid-Victorian liberalism" and raised Smiles to celebrity status almost overnight. In 1837, he wrote articles for the Edinburgh Weekly Chronicle and the Leeds Times, campaigning for parliamentary reform. In November 1838, Smiles was invited to become the editor of the Leeds Times, a position he accepted and filled until 1842.

    Samuel Smiles (1812-1904) war ein schottischer Moralschriftsteller. Er war ursprünglich Mediziner, gab aber dann die Praxis auf, um die Redaktion der Leeds Times zu übernehmen. Einige seiner Schriften erlangten große Verbreitung. Aus dem Buch: "Man hat das Glück oft »blind« genannt; aber seine Blindheit ist minder groß als die der Menschen. Wer sich im praktischen Leben umschaut, der wird finden, daß das Glück gewöhnlich auf Seiten des Fleißigen steht - wie Wellen und Wind sich auf die Seite der besten Seeleute stellen. Auch auf den edelsten Gebieten menschlichen Strebens erweisen sich die einfacheren Tugenden - Verständigkeit, Aufmerksamkeit, Fleiß und Beharrlichkeit - von höchstem Nutzen." Inhalt: . Nationale und individuelle Selbsthilfe . Führer auf dem Gebiet der Industrie - Erfinder und Produzenten . Drei große Töpfer: Palissy, Böttger, Wedgwood . Fleiß und Beharrlichkeit . Hilfsmittel und Gelegenheiten - wissenschaftliche Bestrebungen . Arbeiter auf dem Gebiet der Kunst . Fleiß und Adelsverleihung . Energie und Mut . Geschäftsleute .
