Control of Hysteria (Spanish edition)

The Control of Hysteria

Man can be and can be made to be, by our technologies, more
civilized than he is, happier than he is, more capable of advancing
than he has been. - L. Ron Hubbard

Since the deployment of the first atomic weapons, people
everywhere have lived with the possibility that everything they
hold dear-their lives, their families, their careers and even
the human species itself-could be extinguished in a few moments of
devastation. Such consequences would be so overwhelming that, for
many, the only defense is a hope it will never happen.

Yet as the number of countries with atomic and nuclear weapons has
risen and an international black market actively trades nuclear materials,
action is likely to prove a far stronger deterrent than hope. To be effective,
that action would have to address the real source of the danger. Does it lie
in the awesome destructive power of modern weapons? Is it the damaging
effects of the radiation that would creep across continents? Or does the
actual cause lie elsewhere?

In a message of compelling urgency, Ron not only answers these
questions, but also shows how to resolve the situation at its very core. For
the most fundamental danger of all lies not in the weapons themselves,
but in the barbarity that would drive men to deploy them against their
fellows. To assist both individuals and governments not only to maintain
stability, but to defeat their real enemies-disease, the elements and Man's
own unreason-Ron sets out a humanitarian program vital to all. Applied
broadly, it could raise Man to a high enough level of understanding that
individuals could live their lives free not only from war and the fear of war,
but free even from the possibility that a war could ever again occur.
