Let's sell these people a Piece of Blue Sky: the new, unexpurgated,
unabridged version of the classic history of L. Ron Hubbard and
Scientology. Exposing Hubbard's false claims to be a war hero, a
nuclear physicist, an explorer and a protege of Eastern gurus, and
showing the true malevolence of Scientology. "Invaluable for its
history and insight into the character of its founder, L. Ron
Hubbard." Lawrence Wright, Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood,
& the Prison of Belief "If you only have time to read one book
about L. Ron Hubbard and Scientology, this landmark work is the
one." Miles C. Ferguson "This is the best book I have read about
Scientology." Steve Cannane, ABC Lateline, Australia "A Piece of
Blue Sky is the standard reference among serious students of
authoritarian belief systems. Newer books about Scientology have
been released, but none reproduce the detail and narrative clarity
of Atack's book." Christian Szurko, DialogCentre UK "Since 1976, I
have met, interviewed and counseled countless former officials and
ex-members of Scientology. Of everyone I have ever met, and every
book I have ever read, Jon Atack is the definitive resource of all
things 'Hubbard.'" Steven Hassan, author Freedom of Mind "When I
first read Jon Atack's amazing book A Piece of Blue Sky it was a
series of revelations. I had been on the receiving end of the false
promises, heavy ethics pressures and greed-motivated financial
stresses for decades without being able to reconcile these things
with Hubbard's writings. Jon's book gave me considerable relief as
to what was really going on behind the facade" Michael Pattinson,
ex-OT 8. "As someone who has been at the top of organized
scientology, and seen much of what really went on there, I would
like to express my appreciation for what Jon Atack has done to get
out the truth when it was not safe to do it." Denise Brennan,
former Watchdog Committee Member "Throughout my professional life,
I have seen so many victims of poisonous ideologies from communism
and scientology to Saddam Hussein's "return to faith" and Al
Qaeda's "martyrdom." In my attempts to help those sufferers, I
applied a lesson learned from Jon Atack's writings that freedom
cannot be delivered, granted, or enforced. The true and complete
freedom comes only with the freedom of mind and Jon Atack's book is
the best guide for all who want to achieve that freedom." Professor
Khapta Akhmedova, expert on terrorism "Honestly written, amazingly
accurate, and beautifully assembled, which is why it stood the
test." Gerry Armstrong, former Hubbard aide "This book is
fascinating.... and fresh. I've read every expose and this one is
on the top of my list." Paulette Cooper, author The Scandal of
Scientology "A Piece of Blue Sky was my first introduction to the
real truth about L. Ron Hubbard and Scientology. It's still the
most reliable of the many books on the subject. No one seems to
have worked harder to get things right by relying so carefully on
rare and crucial documents that spell out the history of
Scientology's abuses." Tony Ortega, former editor, Village Voice
"All future scholarship on Scientology will build upon his
contribution." Professor Stephen Kent "When I first read A Piece of
Blue Sky, it became more than instrumental in helping me to
understand my experiences and put them into a meaningful context
that changed my life." Bonnie Woods, ex-OT3 "Atack's book displays
mastery of his material and subtlety of analysis and discussion
that would be praised at the typical final doctoral examination."
Richard de Mille, ghost author of Hubbard's Science of Survival
"This book delivers like none other. We used it extensively during
the fifteen years we helped families retrieve their loved ones from
the cult of Scientology, and we still recommend it today to those
who want to know the truth about Scientology." Jerry Whitfield and
Hana Eltringham Whitfield
