I have to say that lists like these are usually not all that wonderful. And this one is pretty poor.

Why is it that seems more and more true to me as well lately....for example I'm reading "The Evolution of God" (about 100 pages in) and it's like ... please tell me something I don't already know, haven't already read or thought about... guess it's confirmation if nothing else....

God, I envy you Americans, here in Germany they would've probably put Kant's Critique of Pure Reason on number one just for bragging purposes while the editors themselves haven't read it... I did though ;-)

I have to disagree. The movie yes, without a doubt. The book is filled with familiar, and sometimes silly tropes, but, it's still a fun old-fashioned space-opera. It's also the only thing of Hubbard's I've actually enjoyed.
