A PROFILE

L. Ron Hubbard dedicated his life to helping others lead better lives. What followed were workable solutions that span the entire breadth of our culture.

L. Ron Hubbard New York City, circa 1939

There are only two tests of a life well-lived, L. Ron Hubbard once remarked. Did one do as one intended? And were people glad one lived? In testament to the first stands the full body of his life's work, more than 160 million words of both fiction and non-fiction in circulation today, including the more than 5,000 writings and 3,000 tape-recorded lectures of Dianetics and Scientology. In evidence of the second are the tens of millions of individuals whose lives have been demonstrably bettered because he lived.

They are the more than 3 million children now reading because of L. Ron Hubbard’s educational discoveries; they are the thousands of men and women freed from substance abuse through L. Ron Hubbard’s breakthroughs in drug rehabilitation; they are the millions who have been touched by his nonreligious moral code; and they are the many millions more who hold his work to be the spiritual cornerstone of their lives.
