Lawrence Wright - Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood, and the Prison of Belief

Wright examines what fundamentally makes a religion a religion, and whether Scientology is, in fact, deserving of this constitutional protection. With the thorough investigative skills that earned him a Pulitzer for The Looming Tower, his exhaustive account of 9/11, Wright has given us an evenhanded yet keenly incisive book that reveals the very essence of what makes Scientology the institution it is.
