Dianetics


Dianeticsis such a big part of my life, I like to speak about it from time to time.

The book Dianetics: the Modern Science of Mental Health was written in 1950, which was only 5 years after the end of World War II and the deployment of the only two nuclear weapons ever used in warfare.

The world was still pulling out of the shock created by the immense damage wreaked by these bombs.

Anyone see the parallel to the year 2004? Two and a half years after 9/11 and suffering not only from the specacle of the destruction of the World Trade Center, but from two years of war, and now having to confront the depths to which our own troops can fall, with the clear evidence of human rights violations to Afghan and Iraqui soldiers.

How to make sense out of what we see on CNN and read in the "Times"?

Dianetics: the Modern Science of Mental Health explains what lies behind such acts of inhumanity.

I can't recommend it highly enough to anyone who walks away from incidents like these wondering about our fellow citizens of Earth, no matter the nationality.
