FROM THE CRITICS

Erich Fromm - The New York Herald Tribune Book Review, July 1950

Hubbard's book can hardly be taken seriously as a scientific contribution to the science of Man but it must be taken seriously as a symptom of a dangerous trend. Were it only an oversimplified popularization of early Freudian theories it would be harmless. But Dianetics is expressive of a spirit which is exactly the opposite of Freud's teachings.... But perhaps the most unfortunate element in Dianetics is the way it is written. The mixture of some oversimplified truths, half truths and plain absurdities, the propagandistic technique of impressing the reader with the greatness, infallibility and newness of the author's system, the promise of unheard of results attained by the simple means of following Dianetics is a technique which has had most unfortunate results in the fields of patent medicines and politics; applied to psychology and psychiatry it will not be less harmful.

Scientific American

This volume probably contains more promises and less evidence per page than has any publication since the invention of printing. Briefly, its thesis is that man is intrinsically good, has a perfect memory for every event of his life, and is a good deal more intelligent than he appears to be. However, something called the engram prevents these characteristics from being realized in man's behavior.... By a process called dianetic revery, which resembles hypnosis and which may apparently be practiced by anyone trained in dianetics, these engrams may be recalled. Once thoroughly recalled, they are "refiled," and the patient becomes a "clear".... The system is presented without qualification and without evidence.

Los Angeles Daily News

It Dianetics can remove the aberrations which make man a selfish and anti-social creature.... It holds hope that man may at last dispense with the ugly institution of war, because wars are the end product of social aberrations at the national level... Dianetics can rectify the mental short circuits which bring accidental death, can increase longevity, minimize the pain of child-bearing and present Mankind with vast new intellectual vistas...

Dianetics..... A new science which works with the invariability of physical science in the field of the human mind. From all indications it will prove to be as revolutionary for humanity as the first caveman's discovery and utilization of fire. Read all 8 "From The Critics" >

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Schumann

As with all great books, the impact of Dianetics means that the world will never be the same again. History has become a race between Dianetics and catastrophe. Dianetics will win if enough people are challenged, in time, to understand it.  — Writing in the New York Times

Billy Sheehan

In the early days, I would stand with one part of my foot on the amplifier and my eyes pinned downwards. Using Dianetics technology, I became more and more freed up. I used to play one note with one finger and now there are no limits. I came out of a shell. And that happened as a result of Dianetics. I have little attention on the past now, I only have attention on the present and future. Dianetics helps bring your creative horsepower way up.  — Top rock bassist for "Mr. Big"

Ryan Johnson

Power of healing, a successful life, and happiness - all yours by mere thought. Sounds like a science fiction book or movie right? Wrong. It is Dianetics and it is a real science of the mind and its powers. In 1950, L. Ron Hubbard wrote about this science in a book aptly named Dianetics. The book deals with your mind and how your thoughts can affect your current state of health. It speaks of a way that you can make your life better simply by thinking about it. I read this book over the course of two weeks and it has been one of the best books that I have read in years. It did not change my life overnight, or in a week but it did make me think about things I do in life, and why I do them. It makes the reader realize that ever action leads to a reaction, no matter how small the reaction. You might be skeptical about the idea of power of thought, but even if you are Dianetics is a book that I would highly suggest reading. It will show you things about you thought processes that you never knew. I give this book a 5 out of 5 open minds. It's definitely a book to read.  — Staff Writer, Oklahoma City Community College, Pioneer
