9.1 What is the best book for a beginning Scientologist to read?
_Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health_ which is
the best-selling self-help book of all time, is the book
recommended for beginners who are interested in the mind
and how it works. This book has been a best-seller for
over forty years.
In 1977, 'Publishers Weekly' called _Dianetics: The
Modern Science of Mental Health_ "perhaps the
best-selling non-Christian book of all time in the West."
In 1988, 'Publishers Weekly' awarded _Dianetics_ its
prestigious "Century Award" for more than 100 weeks on
its best-seller list, officially designating it the No.
1 best-selling self-help book of all time.
If a person is more interested in starting with a broad
summary of L. Ron Hubbard's research and findings about
man as a spiritual being and basic principles of life,
the first recommended book is _Scientology: The
Fundamentals of Thought_. (Chapter 41 [of _What is
Scientology?_] gives a more detailed explanation of the
books available and suggested course of reading.)
