Resumen del Editor

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.

Not what I expected

I'm sure there are some good take aways from this, but I think it's mostly a novelty.

laughing so hard.

It's laughable how time removes the misunderstandings of perceived reality. I found many parts (fictional) to be entertaining.

Obnoxiously repetitive

Don't hate all of it, don't agree with most of it, definitely didn't need to listen to all of it, but I did. Don't be like me.

Apparently abortion play a big part in mental issu

Apparently abortions play a big part in mental issues according to this book. That and domestic violence.

Mumbai Jumbo

Seems like a bunch of mumbo jumbo to me.
He uses so many words that you have no idea what they mean. I think he did this to make people think he was smarter than he really was and knew what he was talking about. I could I guess believe that this process could work for some but not all people. I on the other hand am not convinced this meaning Scientology is a religion and some type of science.
I think where all this got cuckoo was when greed set in with the author. Once he saw how much money he was making and could make like an other human he wanted to keep it all.
So being creative and a crook he said all this mumbo jumbo the "science of the mind" was a religion and turned the process into a church.
This way he didn't have to pay taxes on his works that had something to do this the "church".
In my opinion I think this decision is where he lost all credibility. I think that some of this meaning the process of Dianetics could work for some and help those people that believe in it.
But to think for one second that your mind is a like a memorex tape and that it has recorded every single sound, visual, motion, or anything else at any given time in your life and can be recalled all the way back to when you were in the womb or even a sperm is just completely idiotic. If this " science of the mind"
was so life changing and amazing and can help so many people then why is the world in the state it is? This discovery was discovered in 1950 and has been read by millions of people. If this was so revolutionary then why are we all not "clear" and changing the world? I will tell you why because to think for one second that with this book the processes such as auditing and spending a lot of money for "therapy" that you can become smarter, successful, never get sick, have no diseases, have no pain, no depression or anxiety is just the dumbest idea ever. I mean come on think of what you are saying. In my opinion there is no way honestly to ever become a "clear" there is no such thing. We are human and the mistakes and emotions we bare is what makes us human, and no book is ever going to change that.

I gave up before the book made any kind of point.

What would have made Dianetics better?

The book just rambled. I'm hoping it eventually got to a point or some sort of action plan, I just couldn't hang in there. It kept going in circles without giving any kind of real information.

What was most disappointing about L. Ron Hubbard’s story?

There was no story.

What does Lloyd Sherr bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I probably wouldn't have made it past the first page if I hadn't been plugged into an audio book and taking a walk.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Disappointment.

Hard PsyFi

A curiously thorough review on the history, concepts, and practice of a science of mind that is almost, but not quite, entirely made up.

Save your money.

unless you are looking to be an auditor and have deep pockets for training this audio book is useless .

Unbiased Review

Very scientific. Interested to find out if theories really work as laid-out. Non-drug, non-hypnosis therapy.

A

A bit weird at times, especially on the views of abortion, but makes some good points on why negative thoughts arise and how to eliminate the constant arrival of negative thoughts. Unfortunately, it seems that you have get in touch with someone who understands and practices the Hypnotherapy and drug combination that this book talks about.
