Publisher's Summary

The #1 New York Times bestseller

With over 22,000,000 copies sold in 50 languages, and used in more than 176 nations, Dianetics brings dramatic and permanent improvement to people all over the world.

“While it’s true that Dianetics has become the self-improvement classic, there can be little doubt that what it has to offer is just what people are now looking for in ever increasing numbers. Reducing stress, achieving goals, improving relationships and striving to live up to one’s full potential is definitely the in thing.” (New York Post)

“Hubbard’s bestseller has helped millions, and it should be read and used by all who are searching for a true understanding of the mind and a solution to such problems as self-doubt, stress, anxiety and depression.” (World Reporter)

“[Dianetics is] 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.” (Daily Mirror)

If you’ve ever felt there was something holding you back in life, ruining your plans and stopping you from being who you want to be, you were right.

The fact is, there is a single source of all your problems, stress, unhappiness and self-doubt. It’s called the reactive mind—the hidden part of your mind that stores all painful experiences, then uses them against you.

With Dianetics, you can learn to control your reactive mind—freeing you to live an extraordinary life and be your true self.

Don’t live with insecurity, negative thoughts, depression and irrational behavior. Use Dianetics to take control of your future.

Key discoveries contained in Dianetics:

  • Why do we give up on our dreams?
  • What is the real cause of depression?
  • Is there a cure for stress?
  • How do you reach your full potential?
  • Why do we hurt the ones we love?
  • Why are some people prone to illness?
  • How can you improve your mental health?
  • Can you conquer your fears?

Start the adventure—of you. Buy and listen to Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health.

Gave understanding of mental health

I have heard a lot about this book and about how it has a workable view to mental health. There's so many books and stuff out there and the volcano on the front of this one attracted my interest. It is very thorough and I wound up with... I suppose you could say a totally different view of how my mind works, and what the unconscious part of it does and its influence. Wow. Never realized the effect it could make in my life. Now that I know that, I feel I can work more effectively and I know more of why other people act in certain ways.

An interesting mix of Philosophy and Application

I both read and listened to the book It is utterly fascinating.

That said, it is actually a simple subject once one understands the basics of it. Take the time to digest the material as some of it subject matter such as emotion or Life force might be unfamiliar

All in all it is an interesting read and I do suggest one give a crack at it of you want something to study.
