His followers might have managed to skew the list. The same could be said about Ayn Rand, but I like to believe it as an unmanipulated list. Even thouh, I don't agree the inclusion of all the books by Hubbard in the top 10, I feel that all the 4 books by Ayn Rand belongs there. I would have replaced Mission Earth with Catch 22, which I definitely feel belongs to the top 10. Yes, Hubbard is the founder of Scientology. His followers might have managed to skew the list.
