review 1: Google 'Exploding Tomato' and watch BBC reporter John Sweeney unleash the beast against a seemingly shocked and appalled crowd. What could cause such a reaction? Enter the Church Scientology. Join John as he explores the church and discovers the complete delusion of it's members. Allegations of abuse, brain-washing and forced isolation from families are common from defectors, but you can make up your own mind on the church...then again the title of the book says it all!
review 2: Some good points about Scientology and cults, but in being written as the story of the investigation this book looses a lot as it becomes rather repetitive as well as confusing at times. There is the feeling that Sweeney is still very defensive about the 'exploding tomato' incident and... more his investigation as a whole and maybe that the book grew from that defensiveness. This is a pity as I think if it had been written as an account of their findings it would be far more interesting. Overall I feel that I learned more about a specific Panorama investigation than I did about Scientology. less
