The great blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach; but we shut our eyes, and like people in the dark, we fall foul upon the very thing we search for, without finding it.
- Seneca


Our ideas, like orange-plants, spread out in proportion to the size of the box which imprisons the roots.
- Edward Bulwer Lytton

Suggestions for Further Reading

bookbfm.jpg Bare Faced Messiah
An in-depth and very candid look at the true story of L. Ron Hubbard's life and legacy. Russell Miller is one of the first writers to explore Hubbard's career and upbringing. Well documented, well-researched, and well, awesome.
bookpobs.jpg A Piece of Blue Sky
Amazon review: ""A Piece of Blue Sky" is one of those Books Scientology Doesn't Want You to Read. As they did with "Bare-Faced Messiah," Russell Miller's excellent biography of founder L. Ron Hubbard, the Church has attempted to stop publication of this book. They will tell you it is libelous. It is not - it has been challenged in the courts and vindicated."
booksmtac.jpg Scientology: More Than A cult?
"Due to his extensive knowledge of Hubbard's work and writings, and great clarity of presentation, the author - a Church of Scientology drop-out, writing under the pseudonym of L. Kin - succeeds in unmasking the internal affairs as well as the strategic intentions of the sect. Reading the first part provides the kind of thrill one would get from a secret service dossier."
