"Scientology 0-8" is not a beginner's book. It's not a book to read cover to cover. Instead it's a reference book that complements the other books. I'm not a scientologist, but I find the book very helpful when studying the subject, especially the new 2007 edition, which is almost 500 pages (compared to about 150 pages in the 1970 edition I got from the library). The new edition makes it easy to follow how the concepts evolved. There are seven versions of the emotional tone scale, eight descriptions of the dynamics, ten versions of the auditor's code, etc. So if you're studying Scientology, whether as a scientologist or just out of curiosity, this book, and the 2007 edition in particular, is a very good reference book.
good intro to Scientology
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
this is a good read if you aren't already familiar with the concepts of Dianetics & Scientology. Would also encourage the reader to read Fundamentals of Thought and Evolution of a Science as well by L. Ron Hubbard for continued study.
Indispensible

This is a book to not only read cover to cover, but to keep handy as reference to aid day-to-day living. It can be understood on various levels at different times... I first read it many years ago, but I keep discovering "new" things in it.
A heavy work on flows

This book covers the basics of flows, and how to handle them. The subject might seem a bit astray, but doing an analysis by or through the flows involved, can give You quite a bit of understanding.
