That book prompted a fair bit of snickering and head scratching in my circles. We couldn't decide whether it was an unpublished manuscript sitting in a drawer from the days when he conceived Dianetics and proceeded to Get Rich Quick, or whether it really was a new book, written since his return to writing, and he simply hadn't learned anything in the intervening 30 years.
No such question exists about the "Mission: Earth" series. The question there is who wrote the last 5 or 6, since Hubbard died part way through. I heard a rumor A.E. Van Vogt was responsible, which would make sense, but haven't seen confirmation one way or the other.
