SCIENTOLOGY 8 - 8008 by L. Ron Hubbard Published December 1952 S c i e n t o l o g y 8 - 8 0 0 8 was written by L. Ron Hubbard in England in October— November 1952. He had the first copy with him when he flew to the United States and presented it at the opening of the Philadelphia Doctorate Course on December first. It was used as the professional course textbook. It is written as a self-contained unit and is an exciting book to read, having a style that is staccato and crisp. It conveys the maximum amount of information in the minimum space. As originally written it contained Standard Operating Procedure, Issue 3, and the entire professional course as given in Phoenix, Philadelphia and London followed this text, the 62 lecture hours of that course being organized as an expansion of the book and technique. Issue 4, went by rapidly one weekend early in the Philadelphia Doctorate Course, and Issue 5 was used for the balance of the course. The last issue of Standard Operating Procedure was number eight (SOP-8), which was broadly communicated in May 1953. Then came Short 8, SOP-8A, SOP-8L (life), SOP-8C (clinical), SOP-8D (delivery of heavy cases), SOP-80 (operating thetan). Later editions of this book have successively added more material to the original text including: The Factors (April 1953), SOP-8 (May 1953), Certainty Processing (June 1953), Six Levels of Processing—Issue 5 (11 November 1955) and Games Processing ( 14 February 1956) . All of these will be found in these volumes. 160 pages, hardcover with dust jacket.
