Book Description

December 1994 8773369993 978-0884048992
Here is something you can actually use day-in and day-out in the practical world of living—tools that enable you to handle a broad scope of situations that we all face in today's world.

Whether it’s raising healthy and happy children, improving your quality of communication with your associates, or having an exact plan on how to achieve your goals in life —The Scientology Handbook gives you proven and effective tools that can immediately be put to use in these areas.

Once you understand the exact barriers in the road to achieving what you want in life, you can take effective action to remedy this. And that is exactly what you get with this book.

The Handbook is so practical that anyone can pick it up, read it and apply it. It is broken down into 19 separate bodies of technology, addressing the most common problems of man, such as:

Education and how to handle illiteracy Relationships and how to maintain a successful marriage Solutions to the everyday problems of the workaday world Keeping children happy, productive and healthy Successful communication with anyone Assists for illness and injuries Overcoming the effects of drugs

Today, the need for real solutions is crucial. Abuses of every description are rampant in the world—drugs, crime, conflict, terrorism, illiteracy, immorality—the list seems endless. To have any decent future at all, you need to know this manual for living and use it.

Enough people doing so will create the positive effect our turbulent society must have.

Book Features:

Large hardcover format Over 900 pages and 700 illustrations 19 chapters covering different areas of life Practical exercises following each chapter for application Results from others who have read the book:

"Recently I went to the hospital to see a friend who’d had an accident. He had been pretty badly mangled up and was in a coma, not responding to anyone or anything. The 'experts' at the hospital said he’d never walk again, use his hands, or live to see his next birthday. I was running assists on him from The Scientology Handbook for several weeks when one day he regained consciousness. Using another assist from the handbook I got him into communication with the environment and then with me. To the total disbelief of the doctors and staff, I continued the assists for another week and both he and I walked out of the hospital together. That was the biggest thrill of my life and it was totally because I used the techniques from The Scientology Handbook." —G.M.

"I spent a few hours and read the entire Scientology Handbook. It gave me a sense of knowingness I’ve never had before. I knew that I was prepared for any situation in life and I’d know what to do. I now perform assists at work and apply the technology from the book. Now I’m considered a miracle worker and someone who knows what she’s doing. All my life I’ve tried to help people, but now with The Scientology Handbook, I can really help them!" —K.J.

More About the Author

With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 230 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everyone should read this book, January 10, 2005
This review is from: The Scientology Handbook (Hardcover)
I have spent 12 years on a spiritual quest, and ran into this book while doing a search term. I had heard so many negative things about Scientology, that I ignored my findings for 3 years. 3 years later, and hundreds of abandoned books, again I search, and this book comes up. So I buy it. And now I kick myself for not acknowledging it when I first discovered it.

I have read thousands of books, I read every day, I study every day, and this is by far the best practical guide to life I have ever encountered. I use the information daily. Whether it is dealing with my children, setting goals, performing nerve assists or touch assists on friends and family with pain, public relations, organization - I spent 4 days doing the practical applications in my home and in my office, and I felt lighter and free to think when the clutter was removed, marriage, and something I use with myself and taught my kids was the technology of study. The entire educational system should adopt this, and it is so easy you could do it in under a week. The cause of suppression - since reading this I have never had a cold or illness since. There is much more, and this book would make the best gift to a son or daughter heading off to college, or for any adult that is not flourishing.

Until you discover an answer for yourself, the rest is heresay and gossip.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is (or should be) the handbook of life!, January 7, 2012

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Scientology Handbook (Hardcover)
I have been reading and researching the work of Dr Hubbard along with others for the past 20 odd years and have now and then come across individual booklets with regards to specific help to life offered by the CoS. Each of these little booklets runs about $5 or so, and are also available online in PDF format (or they used to be anyways). This book has all these booklets in it! Some topics that I have found useful are Ethics, Marriage, Communication, Study, Children and many others... Of course one of the best things is that the CoS offers free training courses for each of the modules in the book at www.volunteerministers.org, and heck - if you do them all you can be a certified volunteer minister (so much for the so called "Cult of Greed" I keep hearing about!).

Buy this book, use it, read it, live it! You do not have to be a Scientologist for this to work any more that you need to be a physicist for gravity to work! Take me as an example, not a Scientologist, am very spiritual and still this technology works for me like electricity.... flip the switch and the lights come on!

Many Blessings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful information...., October 15, 2009
By 
This review is from: The Scientology Handbook (Hardcover)
Why? Well, for instance the Chapter entitled 'Ethics and The Conditions'. I didn't really understand it, but if you read the Chapter 'The Technology of Study' you find out why you didn't understand it, because you weren't looking up your words in a dictionary to understand what they mean...I know, it sounds obvious, but until someone spells it out, it really isn't obvious. The whole book is like that, it seems to 'have all the answers'. It's funny you never hear about things like this on Oprah, it seems like she'd be all over it...if only Dr. Phil would start giving out practical advice like this.

I use this book a lot: There is a section on Tone Scales, which are the different tone levels people are in, cheerful, grief, apathy, etc. The book tells what you can expect of people in different tones, and how to handle them. There is...there seems to be something for everyone. You should get this book. There, I said it. I'm on record. Anyone who from this point on comes up to me and complains that I had all the answers to their problems, but I didn't share them and thus help them out is in error - as I said, this book has all the answers and I just told you to read it.
