Written by the founder of scientology L Ron Hubbard. Find out what Tom Cruise thinks and
may believe if you dare...not for the weak willed, and easily swayed by pop psychology. This book is not bad on the whole and sets forth some fairly concise rules for living your life, that make sense, if you don't pick at them to much. Decide for your self.

For anyone interested in Scientology, the religion of celebrities like Tom Cruise, John Travolta, and Kirstie Alley.

I bought this book because I wanted to understand what Scientology is about, but I found it unreadable.

I thought this book was great. It helped me understand myself better and even has a section on children that helps in raising them.

I didn't get around to reading this, although when I bought it in February I had hoped to. Just wanted to make it available to anyone who may be interested because it isn't really high on my priority list anymore.

Watch out for those Volcano-dwelling-aliens - oops you're not supposed to know about them until you pay several thousand dollars to this cult...

You may think that what you learn in this book is the same as psychology, but I guarantee you that it is not. Here is a really true understanding of how the mind works. As I read it, I kept thinking, "Oh my God, why didn't I know this before?"

I bought this book when I first heard that John Travolta was into Scientology. Never read it, cover isn't even creased.
