L. Ron Hubbard
Brief content visible, double tap to read full content.
Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.
With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 350 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most enduring 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.
Then too, of course, there is all L. Ron Hubbard represents as the Founder of Dianetics and Scientology and thus the only major religion born in the 20th century.
While, as such, he presents the culmination of science and spiritual technology as embodied in the religion of Scientology.

Knowledge is valueble when applied. And "Thought" is the a big part in life.... Dont you think?

Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2020

This is very intelligent. I had to watch it twice to grasps it and understand it better. I really liked the chapter on the "anatomy of a game" and how "barrires" "freedoms" and "purposes" interrelate to give the concept that "life can be likend to game". I applied this and i ended up meeting new people and helpping others. This information is very precise. I realize i can do more for me and other with less barriers yet maintain a game where both sides win.

Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2005

I read this book in 1971 and was immediately impressed by how basic and how sensible it was. It's a book I still love and have recommended to many.

I noticed that one careless reviewer complained that it was only an outline. Well, it IS an outline. It's a very concise statement of some very extensive research. Concise or no, there's an awful lot there that can be immediately applied in improving your life and the lives of the people around you.

Prior to 1971 I had read hundreds of books on both Western and Eastern religions and philosophies, and on various branches of psychology and psychoanalysis. There was lots of interesting stuff there; whether or not it was very helpful is another story (and much of it was downright destructive). Fundamentals of Thought was immediately useful to me in clearing away the cobwebs and giving me information that not only made me happier, but made other people happier with ME. Much of it was simple stuff: I was finally able to have a rewarding relationship with a woman; I learned how to get along with my family; I lost my anxiety on the subject of death and decay; I became more honest; in general, I was making better decisions.

Some reviewer complained that it was "unscientific." I'm not sure what that means since the principles came out of an awful lot of empirical research, and since they can be verified as workable by anyone with half a brain who gives them a fair shot. If what was meant was that the writing doesn't remind you in the least of most of the writing that passes for "scientific," I will gladly agree. Anyone can understand it and use it--no previous knowledge required. And it applies to ALL of life, not just to some tiny, specialized corner of it.

Kids book.

Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2016

Not as full of insight and information as was promised. The inclusion of a running footnote glossary on every page suggested that the expected reader was in fifth grade.
I was so lulled into a stupor, the message was lost to me.

It is not because Hubbard keeps repeating "it is a scientific fact" that it really is a "scientific fact". Read this book as a work of fiction or religious doctrine.

Because I bought this for a friend I cannot really comment on it. I am not really into scientology, so I bought it when my friend asked me to buy it for him.
