The Story of Dianetics & Scientology

""To really know life you've got to be part of life. You must get
down and look, you must get into the nooks and crannies
of existence. You have to rub elbows with all kinds and
types of men before you can finally establish what he is.""
- L. Ron Hubbard

Through his extraordinary journey to the founding of
Dianetics and Scientology, Ron did just that. From his
adventurous youth in a rough"'and"'tumble American
West to his far"'flung trek across a still mysterious Asia; from
his two"'decade search for the essence of life to the triumph of
Dianetics and Scientology-such is the story Ron recounts in a
lecture so legendary, it has been heard by millions.

How could one man discover the source of all human aberration
and provide an actual technology by which Man could rise to greater heights of honesty, decency and personal freedom? The answer is here, in Ron's personal account of his long journey to bring about a new state of being Man had dreamed of for over 2,500 years, a story that could only be told by the man who lived it.
