The two of them published a series of books at the beginning of the 20th century with the purpose of demystifying Eastern philosophy for a Western audience.

Atkinson was an attorney, author, publisher, businessman, and a leading figure in the New Thought Movement that studied ancient wisdom and Eastern philosophy.
