All About Radiation

All About Radiation is a pseudoscientific book by L. Ron Hubbard in 1957 on the subject of radiation and atomic bombs, radiation's effects on the human body, techniques for reducing risk, and eradicating damage to the body. The book is considered part of Scientology's religious texts, and is mandatory reading for Scientologists doing the Purification Rundown. The book is controversial for claiming that radiation poisoning, and even cancer, can be cured by a course of vitamins and prolonged sweating. There is no known cure for radiation poisoning, and current medical practice is to provide palliative care until symptoms subside or the patient dies.
