Best Answer

There dozens of Scientology books written by L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology.

Scientology means a study of knowledge, and thus Scientology has many books, as there is a lot to study.

But the book that started it all was not a Scientology book. It was a Dianetics book. Scientology is a study of life, what are you, that life force that makes decisions. Dianetics is the study of the mind, your mind. Your mind is what you look at to work out the decision.

So it is you who is doing the looking. It is the mind you look to.

But Dianetics is the one that started it all, and had six reprints in 1950 before it slowed down selling.

What started the whole thing was not just another book on the mind. Hundreds of those come out each year. It was this mental state called Clear that L. Ron Hubbard wrote of. It was pretty quickly realized in Scientology this state was what we were all searching for, spiritually as well. Its best description is still in the book Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health.

There are other Dianetics books written before and after this one. But this is the one that started all the trouble and got people flocking to it.
