About this book

Book Description: Dianetics: The Evolution of a Science, this is the story of how L. Ron Hubbard discovered the reactive mind and developed the procedures to get rid of it. Originally written for a national magazine-published to coincide with the release of Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health-it started a wildfire movement virtually overnight upon that book's publication. Here then are both the fundamentals of Dianetics as well as the only account of L. Ron Hubbard's journey of discovery and how he applied a scientific methodology to the problems of the human mind.

About Unknown Author

Lafayette Ronald "L. Ron" Hubbard was an American science fiction author who developed a self-help system called *Dianetics* which was first published in 1950. Over the following three decades Hubbard developed his self-help ideas into a wide-ranging set of doctrines and rituals as part of a new religion he called *Scientology*. Hubbard's writings became the guiding texts for the *Church of Scientology* and a number of affiliated organizations that address such diverse topics as business administration, literacy and drug rehabilitation. Hubbard was a controversial public figure, and many details of his life are still disputed. Official Scientology biographies present him as a "larger-than-life" figure whose career is studded with admirable accomplishments in an astonishing array of fields. Many of these claims are disputed by former Scientologists and researchers not connected with Scientology, who have written accounts that are sharply critical of Hubbard.
