The self-improvement shelves of bookstores, the airwaves and self-help speakers who travel the lecture circuit all offer myriad solutions to the problems of understanding life. Yet the endless stream of man&;s difficulties do not resolve.

In this booklet, L. Ron Hubbard goes beneath all these &;solutions&; to provide the basic knowledge of what actually constitutes understanding.

What can you do with this knowledge? By knowing what understanding really is, you have the tools to handle life itself. This means that you have the tools to increase your understanding of just about anything&;including the people you know and come into contact with.

This knowledge will enable you to help others who are experiencing the travail caused by misunderstandings, differing viewpoints, broken relationships and other ills that can make life a string of successive hardships. You will learn the components of understanding, how they interrelate and make understanding possible. With the skills one can acquire from a study of the fundamentals contained here, you can help bring others back into understanding with their fellows and the world around them.

Although only a portion of the full technology Mr. Hubbard developed on this subject, it is enough to change your approach to life. And its use will help you flourish in any aspect of human activity.

If lack of understanding is, indeed, a source of Man&;s problems, imagine one&;s potentials without this hindrance. Millions of people who apply this knowledge are reaching heights they once only dreamed of&;and are successfully assisting others to do the same.

* Do you have problems in relationships?

* Can't understand why he or she just doesn't "get" you?

* Do yo want to improve relations at the office?

For the solutions and answers to these situations, buy and read this booklet.

About the Author

Author, humanitarian and Founder of Dianetics and Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard is one of the most acclaimed figures of the modern age. In a writing career spanning more than half a century, he was both a leading light of American fiction and the author of more than 35 million words of nonfiction--the single most embracive statement on the human mind and spirit, providing the only road to total spiritual freedom. To date, more than 320 million copies of his works are in circulation worldwide, in 71 languages. All told, those works comprise over 3.000 recorded lectures and some 1.084 written publications, including nineteen New York Times bestsellers. Accordingly, and in testament to the magnitude of his literary legacy, there are his four Guinness World Records: most published author, most translated author, the author with the most audiobook titles and the single most translated non-religious work. Yet the essence of L. Ron Hubbard's legacy is perhaps best expressed in his simple declaration: "I like to help others and count it as my greatest pleasure in life to see a person free himself of the shadows which darken his days. "These shadows look so thick to him and weigh him down so that when he finds they are shadows and that he can see through them, walk through them and be again in the sun, he is enormously delighted. And I am afraid I am just as delighted as he is."
