This book was published in December 1951, and together with two of the other books published in 1951 it was a rather large format 21.5 cm x 27.5 cm. It was softcover, yellow, had a simple cover design and sold for $2.50. The cover pictured to the right is from the ninth edition, 1979. These three 1951 books (the others are a Child Dianetics and Self Analysis) give an idea of the bridge over from Dianetics to modern Scientology.
In the book itself it states:
- This volume of self processing is designed for use in any of four ways:
- 1. As a workbook to be used wholly by the auditor on the pre-clear; or
- 2. As a homework book to be given the pre-clear for use between sessions; or
- 3. As a process done by the pre-clear himself with only occasional auditor help; or
- 4. As a processing manual used wholly by the pre-clear without an auditor.
and this is as true today as it was then, although we have a larger number of other possibilities.
Alterations were made later to the text, which are recorded here
