Answer:

Explanation:The sentence which contains the central idea from the essay G. K. Chesterton's " The Fallacy of Success" is :

They are books showing men how to succeed in everything; they are written by men who cannot even succeed in writing books.

Chesterton dismisses the equation of wealth with success and proposes his own definition: A person or thing is successful merely by existing as itself. The problem with books claiming to contain the secrets of success is that their advice is very generic to be truly useful.
