“Nervus Nefarius reframes Scientology’s core Dianetics concepts as a mathematical and physical system, arguing that mental “engrams” can be quantified, modeled, and eliminated through disciplined physical and meditative practice. WH Clark positions the book as a scientific alternative to mainstream psychiatry, delivered with characteristic engineering rigor and outsider defiance.“

The Mind Has a Coefficient of Friction
WH Clark — engineer, provocateur, and now reluctant Dianetics theorist — brings his signature geometric certainty to the most slippery of subjects: the human psyche. Nervus Nefarius treats L. Ron Hubbard’s “engrams” not as theology but as engineering data, subject to rotation, modeling, and systematic purging through exercise and meditation. The ambition is genuinely startling; the execution, characteristically jagged. Clark’s contempt for conventional psychiatry mirrors his contempt for conventional physics — total, unambiguous, and oddly invigorating. Whether this constitutes a breakthrough or a beautifully structured breakdown remains, perhaps deliberately, unanswered.
