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 Dianetics1. DIA (Greek) through, NOUS (Greek) mind, deals with a system of mental image pictures in relation to psychic (spiritual) trauma. The mental image pictures are believed on the basis of personal revelation to be comprising mental activity created and formed by the spirit, and not by the body or brain. (BPL 24 Sept 73 V) 2. Dn addresses the body. Thus Dn is used to knock out and erase illnesses, unwanted sensations, misemotion, somatics, pain, etc. Dn came before Scn. It disposed of body illness and the difficulties a thetan was having with his body. (HCOB 22 Apr 69)...more 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 auditor1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. 2. one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. 3. a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training...more 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 auditor1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. 2. one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. 3. a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training...more help; or
4. As a processing manual used wholly by the pre-clear without an auditor1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. 2. one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. 3. a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training...more.

and this is as true today as it was then, although we have a larger number of other possibilities.
