"A masterful piece of reporting . . . Reitman tells a spellbinding
story of a larger-than-life personality whose quirks, ticks and
charisma shaped America's newest homegrown religious movement." --"
Washington Post"
Scientology is known for its celebrity believers and its team of
"volunteer ministers" at disaster sites such as the World Trade
Center; its notably aggressive response to criticism or its attacks
on psychiatry; its requirement that believers pay as much as
hundreds of thousands of dollars to reach the highest levels of
salvation. But for all its notoriety, Scientology has remained
America's least understood new religion, even as it has been one of
its most successful.
Now Janet Reitman tells its riveting full story in the first
objective modern history of Scientology, at last revealing the
astonishing truth about life within the controversial religion for
its members and ex-members. Based on five years of research,
confidential documents, and extensive interviews with current and
former Scientologists, this is an utterly compelling work of
nonfiction and the defining work on an elusive faith.
"A meticulously researched history and revealing expose, a
frightening portrait of a religion that many find not just
controversial, but dangerous." -- "Boston Globe "
"This book is fearless." -- "Wall Street Journal "
