5.0 out of 5 stars It's a facinating book which has a message of hope for us., November 28, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: What Is Scientology?: The Comprehensive Reference on the World's Fastest Growing Religion (Hardcover)

What Is Scientology is an impressive volume which is well organized and contains many statistics and graphs to back up most of its statements. Its purpose is to explain to the public at large what this new and controversial religion is all about. The book details its history and explosive growth and references that its religious claims have been substantiated by many religious scholars and high courts around the world. The book also outlines many of the good works that its secular organizations are deeply involved with such as handling drug abuse, illiteracy and criminal behavior and the many community awards that they have received. The central message seems to be this: Read about Scientology and decide for yourself.

By A Customer

This review is from: What Is Scientology?: The Comprehensive Reference on the World's Fastest Growing Religion (Hardcover)

Good information package especially the part with the most commonly asked questions in it. Answered quite a few of my own and a few more besides! Definitely not a waste of time. Think I'll scan this site for more info - the entire subject looks quite interesting & worth a bit more time invested in finding out more about it. Hope you get as much knowledge from this as I did. Regards from a happy reader.
