The Anarchist Cookbook

I was a little skeptical after reading other reviews but this brand new and in perfect condition. And it got here almost a week sooner than expected. It’ll be a great birthday gift for my husband!

Awesome book

Ive always wanted a copy, Somewhat of a fascination. I cannot speak for the Original, it was written well before i was born and it seems original copies are very hard to come by and quite expensive. I have not read through entire book, but i skimmed through it checked out some of the more delicate subject matter... If your familar with the context of the writing you know what i mean. My three points thus far 1) There dose not seem to be any redacted material, in todays age i was worried about that and it seems intact although i could be mistaken ( see the Part above about the original). 2) The contents are intriguing, the forward is in depth and gives insight into my Parents and even Grandparents time in America, it should make for a good read 3) My copy at least is printed well, yes the margins are big, and the book its self while not "thick" is rather large at well over 8.5x11 for the hard cover edition. In closing not a bad purchase, however i would state this book covers a very serious subject matter, i would hope it is respected. And, while i beleive we should have acsess to this information, it is a bit, well scary to think of it the wrong hands, be careful, respect the subject matter. Hope you enjoy.

Pretty neat owning a piece of American history, I have to say, but he lists bananas, peanuts and nutmeg as drugs to do. It's poor information at best and deadly at worst. Needless to say, following most of the recipes outlined in this 'cookbook' would most likely result in a tragically violent death. The hand made drawings are pretty cool though. Some of the text is skewed on the page like it wasn't aligned during the scanning process correctly. I didn't see mention of the modern day compound used by terrorists though. That's probably for the best. I'm reading through other reviews right now and I'm not sure why people say this version is abridged. The only thing I can think of is that they're thinking of the version by 'the jolly roger' that was posted on BBS years back which had info related to phreaking and other outdated hacking methods. Those articles by TJR are dated to around '94 though, To me the book sold is a page for page scanned copy of the original with updated copyright info. Someone let me know if I'm wrong though. In doing more research and finding first edition first print books on abebooks dot com (8k dollars!?) I've noticed that they list page count as 160, same as this version listed for sale. I've come to the conclusion, after reading certain reviews, that people just aren't happy there's no meth recipe and decide to return the book. I would expect a recipe like that to be detailed somewhere online when searching if it had been included in the first place. Oh well I guess. Just goes to show that meth really does melt your brain. I've seen a documentary about the stuff hosted on YouTube that pretty much details the entire shake and bake method but for some people they'd rather order a book that's tragically dangerous and written by a 19 year old kid. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'm not sure what's meant by 'politically corrected version of the anarchist's cookbook' but I doubt the formulas for explosives is very PC. They're still in there though. As for the construction of the hard cover, it's a normal modern day book. The pages feel like any other book's pages. The ink was well laid down and doesn't suffer from smudging or blurriness. Some pages aren't entirely aligned though. The spine binding looks like impregnated glue to me.

It has all the answers; Come on.

I was curious about all the hype but it's just a bunch of useless inaccurate information and very outdated but kinda cool to have a copy

Always a conversation starter

Should be required reading in grade school.

thou do not make the things inside it, it might give you a darwin award if you think everything in the book works right

Das hier rezensierte Produkt ist wirklich ein Nachdruck des alten Orginals! In den falschen Händen eine gefährliche Anleitung - in den richtigen Händen ein kurzweiliges Lesevergnügen. Das Buch ist durchgehend in (unprofessionellem) Englisch geschrieben und verwendet eine sehr alte Notation, was z.B. Mengenangaben und Mischungsverhältnisse angeht. Es sind auch Illustrationen vorhanden, allerdings sind fast alle selbstgezeichnet. Wie man sich das vorstellen muss? Man stelle sich vor, dass man als kleiner Aushilfs-Revoluzzer im Keller an ein paar "Überraschungen" bastelt und macht sich nebenbei Notzen über Behälter, Skizzen von nötigen Apparaturen u.s.w. - und hat keinerlei künstlerische Ausbildung. Damit sind Perspektive und Relation also völlig daneben und krickelig. -> Von dieser Art Qualität schreibe ich hier. Für alle die aus ehrlichem (und nettem) Interesse recherchieren oder nur schmökern wollen: Kauft euch das Buch! Für alle, die den Staat in seinen Grundfesten erschüttern und Menschen boshaft verletzen wollen: Kauft euch das Buch auch - ihr werdet euch sehr warscheinlich selbst in die Luft sprengen. So wird man die geistig Mobilitätseingeschränkten auch los...

È per mio figlio che lo trova interessante con esperimenti interessanti.

Great for knowledge purposes and also provides fascinating insights into the anarchist mindset of the 1970s. As a student of history, I found that part extremely compelling. Obviously I haven't built any of the recipes inside as that would be a crime where I am, but as a novelty item and piece of history it's great.

Esta genial
