| dianetics hubbard: To the Stars L. Ron Hubbard, 2004-08-15 Space is deep Man is small and Time is his relentless enemy… How far is too far? What price do we pay for expanding our knowledge to the limit, for exploring the farthest reaches of the universe, for extending our reach To the Stars? Alan Corday, a smart yet desperate young man, is about to find out. His family fortune squandered and the woman he loves unattainable, Corday will go to almost any length to change his luck. But his desperation leads him into harm’s way—and into the hands of one Captain Jocelyn and his crew. Shanghaied from the spaceport at New Chicago, Corday is taken aboard the Hound of Heaven, a craft bound for the stars…on a journey through hell. 186,000 miles per second. The speed of light. The Hound of Heaven approaches this speed to reach its distant destinations. But three months traveling at that speed is equal to half a century on earth—and the world they left behind is fast vanishing into the past. Everything Corday loves, everything he believes in—is history. He is a wanderer in eternity, and nothing in the cold, dark forbidding reaches of space can prepare him for the astounding discovery he will make upon his long-awaited return from the stars. “Just as timely, just as awe-inspiring, just as profoundly moving as it was in 1950.” ―“i>i>Barnes & Noble Explorations Blog “Remarkably powerful novel.”; —John W. Campbell, Jr., Astounding Science Fiction “One of his finest works. Hubbard brilliantly evokes the vastness of space and the tragedy of those who would conquer it.” —Publishers Weekly starred review You will love To the Stars because you’ll experience space exploration in a way you will not forget.

| dianetics hubbard: A Piece of Blue Sky Jon Atack, 1990 Atack exposes Hubbard's bizarre imagination and behavior, tracing the creation of Scientology in the years following World War II to perhaps its final schism following Hubbard's death in 1986.

| dianetics hubbard: Let's Sell These People a Piece of Blue Sky Jon Atack, 2013 This is the new, unexpurgated, unabridged version of the classic history of L. Ron Hubbard and Scientology. Exposing Hubbard's false claims to be a war hero, a nuclear physicist, an explorer and a protege of Eastern gurus, and showing the true malevolence of Scientology.

| dianetics hubbard: Introduction to Scientology Ethics L. Ron Hubbard, 2007 Since time immemorial, people have preached the necessity to live by the tenets of honesty, compassion and decencythat integrity is the only foundation upon which true life itself is built. But no matter how well Man has intuitively known this, none could point the way to achieve it. Is it any wonder, then, that the very subject of ethics has become either what one can get away with or whats good for oneself alone? One cant live in a world where ethics itself is a charade and where justice has become a mockery of civilization. Here, then, is a brand-new look, a way for an individual to pull oneself up, for a society to reverse its downward slide, for Man to ascend to the heights of a dreamed-for destiny. For contained in this book are the breakthroughs that bring understanding to the subjects of right and wrong, good and bad, death and survival. |

| dianetics hubbard: Learning How to Learn La Fayette Ron Hubbard, 2021-03-08 Learning should be fun, and it sure is, if one clearly understands what one is trying to study. If you want to keep up a young students interest and keep him or her winning, you may need a bit of know-how that we never learnt in school. Learning How to Learn explains the three most common issues students of any age or any subject encounter, and their respective remedies. These remedies are so exact, but also so simple that a young man or woman at the age of seven can understand them; and they are certainly most valuable for the parents and teachers who wish to help. There are specific and simple methods that open up the road to success and joy in education. This knowledge about the right approach to learning may well make all the difference between failure and a happy and successful learning carrier. Age range for this book is 7 to 11. |

| dianetics hubbard: Going Clear Lawrence Wright, 2013-11-05 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • NATIONAL BOOK AWARD AND NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FINALIST • From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Looming Tower comes “an utterly necessary story” (The Wall Street Journal) that pulls back the curtain on the church of Scientology: one of the most secretive organizations at work today. • The Basis for the HBO Documentary. Scientology presents itself as a scientific approach to spiritual enlightenment, but its practices have long been shrouded in mystery. Now Lawrence Wright—armed with his investigative talents, years of archival research, and more than two hundred personal interviews with current and former Scientologists—uncovers the inner workings of the church. We meet founder L. Ron Hubbard, the highly imaginative but mentally troubled science-fiction writer, and his tough, driven successor, David Miscavige. We go inside their specialized cosmology and language. We learn about the church’s legal attacks on the IRS, its vindictive treatment of critics, and its phenomenal wealth. We see the church court celebrities such as Tom Cruise while consigning its clergy to hard labor under billion-year contracts. Through it all, Wright asks what fundamentally comprises a religion, and if Scientology in fact merits this Constitutionally-protected label. |

| dianetics hubbard: The Carnival of Death L. Ron Hubbard, 2007 Decadence and murder found on the dark side of the big city pales in comparison to the freak show found by undercover US narcotics agent Bob Clark in The Carnival of Death. Clark's investigation begins with cocaine and leads to cold-blooded murder--the discovery of one, and then another, headless corpse. Who is behind the slaughter? Are the killings tied to the drug traffic? Or is a deeper, darker, and even more sinister conspiracy unfolding in the carnival? There are plenty of distractions--bright lights and beautiful girls--but Clark better find the murderers of the midway fast. Because the next head that rolls could very well be his own. Also includes the mystery The Death Flyer, in which a man and woman find themselves trapped on a ghost train and bound for a deadly crash ... unless they can find a way to derail fate and cheat death--on the fly. Experience the spinning wheels, the pleasure-seeking crowds and the screams of horror as the The Carnival of Death takes you on a roller-coaster ride of suspense. Highly recommended. --Midwest Book Review Roars to life. --Library Journal |

| dianetics hubbard: Bare-Faced Messiah Russell Miller, 2016-01-07 Bare-Faced Messiah tells the extraordinary story of L. Ron Hubbard, a penniless science-fi ction writer who founded the Church of Scientology, became a millionaire prophet and convinced his adoring followers that he alone could save the world. According to his 'official' biography, Hubbard was an explorer, engineer, scientist, war hero and philosopher. But in the words of a Californian judge, he was schizophrenic, paranoid and a pathological liar. What is not in dispute is that Hubbard was one of the most bizarre characters of the twentieth century. Bare-Faced Messiah exposes the myths surrounding the fascinating and mysterious founder of the Church of Scientology - a man of hypnotic charm and limitless imagination - and provides the defi nitive account of how the notorious organisation was created. |

| dianetics hubbard: Speaking from Experience La Fayette Ron Hubbard, 1996-01-01 SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE dramatically increases basic understanding of groups and how they work. While this is primarily a book on management, it broadens one's perspective in numerous ways. Principles contained in this book are based on extensive research into the subjects of management, organization, people and their work. It outlines certain laws of management which are uniform and unchanging in any group endeavor. This material is currently being used in highly successful corporations. The illustrated situations are based on practical everyday experiences. This book is quite different from other books on management in that each page covers a single concept, presented in an illustrated fashion. This helps the reader to cut quickly through the words and directly into the conceptual understanding of the subject matter. Regardless of the condition of the economy, a well-managed organization will flourish and prosper, whereas a poorly-managed organization will tend to collapse. The ability to make a business successful under any economic condition stems from a keen understanding of management itself. In truth, there is a phenomenal difference between expert management and poor management. It is a difference which can almost single-handedly change the course of an entire culture.

| dianetics hubbard: Astounding Alec Nevala-Lee, 2018-10-23 Hugo and Locus Award Finalist An Economist Best Book of the Year A Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Best Book of 2018 “An amazing and engrossing history...Insightful, entertaining, and compulsively readable.” — George R. R. Martin Astounding is the landmark account of the extraordinary partnership between four controversial writers—John W. Campbell, Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein, and L. Ron Hubbard—who set off a revolution in science fiction and forever changed our world. This remarkable cultural narrative centers on the figure of John W. Campbell, Jr., whom Asimov called “the most powerful force in science fiction ever.” Campbell, who has never been the subject of a biography until now, was both a visionary author—he wrote the story that was later filmed as The Thing—and the editor of the groundbreaking magazine best known as Astounding Science Fiction, in which he discovered countless legendary writers and published classic works ranging from the I, Robot series to Dune. Over a period of more than thirty years, from the rise of the pulps to the debut of Star Trek, he dominated the genre, and his three closest collaborators reached unimaginable heights. Asimov became the most prolific author in American history; Heinlein emerged as the leading science fiction writer of his generation with the novels Starship Troopers and Stranger in a Strange Land; and Hubbard achieved lasting fame—and infamy—as the founder of the Church of Scientology. Drawing on unexplored archives, thousands of unpublished letters, and dozens of interviews, Alec Nevala-Lee offers a riveting portrait of this circle of authors, their work, and their tumultuous private lives. With unprecedented scope, drama, and detail, Astounding describes how fan culture was born in the depths of the Great Depression; follows these four friends and rivals through World War II and the dawn of the atomic era; and honors such exceptional women as Doña Campbell and Leslyn Heinlein, whose pivotal roles in the history of the genre have gone largely unacknowledged. For the first time, it reveals the startling extent of Campbell’s influence on the ideas that evolved into Scientology, which prompted Asimov to observe: “I knew Campbell and I knew Hubbard, and no movement can have two Messiahs.” It looks unsparingly at the tragic final act that estranged the others from Campbell, bringing the golden age of science fiction to a close, and it illuminates how their complicated legacy continues to shape the imaginations of millions and our vision of the future itself. Enthralling…A clarion call to enlarge American literary history.” — Washington Post “Engrossing, well-researched… This sure-footed history addresses important issues, such as the lack of racial diversity and gender parity for much of the genre’s history.” — Wall Street Journal “A gift to science fiction fans everywhere.” — Sylvia Nasar, New York Times bestselling author of A Beautiful Mind |

| dianetics hubbard: Handbook of Scientology James R. Lewis, 2017-01-05 The Handbook of Scientology brings together a collection of fresh studies of the most persistently controversial of all contemporary New Religions. In recent years, increasing scholarly attention has been directed at the Church of Scientology, resulting in a small tsunami of new scholarship. We have finally reached a point in time where a book on Scientology need not restrict itself to basics. Thus, for example, the historical chapters in the present volume are not really aimed at providing elementary facts on Scientology’s background, but, rather, focus on understanding how the Church of Scientology developed over the years. In short, the Handbook of Scientology will provide a wealth of new information on a topic that one might otherwise have thought exhausted. Contributors are Matthew Charet, Dorthe Refslund Christensen, Carole M. Cusack, Bernard Doherty, Marco Frenschkowski, Liselotte Frisk, Kjersti Hellesøy, Don Jolly, James R. Lewis, Renee Lockwood, András Máté-Tóth, Gábor Dániel Nagy, Johanna Petsche, Erin Prophet, Susan Raine, David G. Robertson, Mikael Rothstein, Lisbeth Tuxin Rubin, Nicole S.

| dianetics hubbard: Among the Scientologists Donald A. Westbrook, 2019 The Church of Scientology is one of the most recognizable American-born new religions, but perhaps the least understood. With academic and popular interest on the rise, many books have been written about Scientology and surely more will follow. Although academics have begun to pay more attention to Scientology, the subject has received remarkably little qualitative attention. Indeed, no work has systematically addressed such questions as: what do Scientologists themselves have to say about their religion's history, theology, and practices? How does Scientology act as a religion for them? What does lived religion look like for a Scientologist? This is not so much a book about the Church of Scientology, its leaders, or its controversies, as it is a compilation of narratives and histories based on the largely unheard or ignored perspectives of Scientologists themselves. Drawing on six years of interviews, fieldwork, and research conducted among members of the Church of Scientology, this groundbreaking work examines features of the new religion's history, theology, and praxis in ways that move discussion beyond apostate-driven and expos� accounts. |
| dianetics hubbard: The Kingdom of the Cults Handbook Walter Martin, Jill Martin Rische, 2020-01-07 False religions abound in the US and beyond, and Christians need information they can trust. Since the 1960s, The Kingdom of the Cults has been a trustworthy, well-researched resource on this topic for pastors, lay leaders, and other Christians. The Kingdom of the Cults Handbook takes that same, reliable information and pares it down into a more concise and simplified format. It's perfect for everyone from Christian teachers and ministry leaders to those who just want to better understand the religion of their neighbors. Covering everything from established religions like Islam and Buddhism to shifting trends in Mormonism, Scientology, and Wicca, this book will answer your questions and help you understand and communicate the key differences between true Christianity and other belief systems. |
| dianetics hubbard: A Kingdom of the Truth or Deception? David K. Hebert Th.D., 2024-12-18 This book has been the culmination of over forty years of study on the concept of defending the Christian faith against false religions and cults that oppose that faith by exposing them. Since 2007, the study took on a more academic-researched scholarly tone while writing one chapter in the doctoral work. It was during that time frame that studying the false religions and cults took on a more focused biblical, historical, and Christian orthodox direction. So the foundation of this book uses the Parable of the Wheat and the Weeds (Tares) in Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43 and a clear understanding of the core orthodox Christian beliefs as the standard for Christians to compare the kingdom of God versus the kingdom of darkness (and God's truth versus Satan's lies/error) throughout biblical history, from the Garden of Eden to the present day, especially as the day of Jesus Christ's return so rapidly approaches. |
| dianetics hubbard: Extraordinary Groups Richard T. Schaefer, William W. Zellner, 2015-10-22 Extraordinary Groups has had a storied history of excellence over multiple editions. Now available from Waveland Press at the start of its fifth decade of availability, its interdisciplinary approach to groups engaged in unconventional lifestyles makes it a popular textbook choice in hundreds of college courses across the social sciences, including anthropology, religion, history, and psychology. Written by sociologists, using and illustrating sociological principles, the book is appealing because it is descriptive and explanatory rather than analytical. Descriptions of the groups are interwoven with basic sociological concepts, but systematic analysis and inductive reasoning are left to the discretion of the instructor. Extraordinary Groups is a compelling overview of the broad tapestry of social life that constitutes the United States. The illustrated, full-featured Ninth Edition includes a glossary and end-of-chapter key terms, sources on the Web, and selected readings. |
