Scientology may also refer to:
- "The Science of the Scientismus"[1] the first known occurrence of the term as a neologism in The Primary Synopsis of Universology and Alwato,[2] 1871 book by Stephen Pearl Andrews
- Scientology: A History of Man, 1952 book by L. Ron Hubbard
- Scientology: The Now Religion, 1970 book by George Malko
- Scientology (James R. Lewis book), 2009 book edited by James R. Lewis
Notes
- ↑ One of a number of terms idiosyncratic to the work such as "Artology" and "Universology", this one has a contextual meaning that would correspond to modern sociology of science, currents of analytic and other later philosophy, and the unique perspective of the work. q.v the PDF is searchable for the term. Alwato itself is a primitive conlag presaging modern ones such as lojban.
