Biography of L. Ron Hubbard: Dianetics, Modern Science of Mental Health Around the World
The Birth of
Dianetics
The Second World War proved both an interruption of research and a further impetus—the first owing to service in both the Atlantic and Pacific as a commander of antisubmarine patrols; the second because if anything underscored the need for a workable philosophy of human betterment, it was the sheer horror of that conflict. Or as he so succinctly put it, “Man has a madness and it’s called war.” Mr. Hubbard was also among the first to express concerns over what the advent of atomic weapons meant when unaccompanied by a corresponding understanding of human behavior.
