Anarchist Cookbook

Anarchy? i think not.

This is an excellent book if you are interested in blowing stuff up and possibly getting yourself killed, but don't think for a second that this is what anarchy is really about. I enjoy blowing stuff up as much as the next guy, a love everyone who has ever been a teenage boy can understand, but that is completely separate from anarchy. No true anarchist i know would condone the actions in this book if they are used against people, maybe blowing up barbie dolls in an open field somewhere for fun, but never for malicious intent. be warned, if you try almost any of the things described in the book, you stand a real chance of killing yourself or getting yourself arrested. Overall, it's worth reading, but use your head people

forget the 5 star reviews from 14 year olds.

The recipes for explosives are both inaccurate and lack the proper steps required to safely produce high explosive. Example, it has dozens of chemicals that can be used to make black powder, but it doesn't mention the steps required to mix them, or the power/stability of each recipe, and may require hard to get chemicals that could be made to make even better explosives. I'm a marine Demo expert, I know what I'm talking about.

Anarchist Idiots

I think it is stupid to believe in anarchy. The book is simply a record of things used by people whom feel neglected by the government. ANARCHY WILL NEVER HAPPEN!!! I do not believe in Anarchy because it will never take over the majority. There will always be more people willing to fight for the government than against. GIVE IT UP!! Call me a pussy if you like but you will never achieve anything here... you dont like it move out. It would cost alot less to buy your own island and rule yourself than try and take over the American government. I want change too. It can be changed too! Vote, go to college, run for office, bring your own ideas... dont take away government because if you take away government sure you would be free... but stronger individuals would ruin weaker ones.

great book

it is not a matter of 'rep-ing' anarchy nor saying anarchy will work. whats important about is its culturaland polical statements its less about bombs and more abou personal freedom and rights

its a great book..duh..posers..

I know what people are going to say. There going to say,'Anarchy has nothing to do with the total annihilation of things..blah blah blah(long description of Anarchy).' But I say, if you truly want Anarchy, you can't do it in some peacefully/hippy way. No, if you're a true Anarchist, you know you need to play dirty to make your dream happen. You need these things for it to happen. Hence the title, 'The Anarchist Cookbook'. If you want to use this for education purposes fine. If you want to do more, thats fine too. But if you're a little kid that thinks this is to blow things up, just go play with something else. Its not for you. So :P

Presents horrible representation

If you have the middle school boy perception of anarchism and love it or hate it because of that perception, then PLEASE read some actual educational and insightful literature other than this crap. This book does not represent anarchism or anarchists at all. Anyone truly educated on the subject would know how much of a sham this book really is.

Anarchy doesn't and can't exist.

First of all I would like to say that true anarchy is impossible to achieve, even if it was it would only be a matter of hours before some manner of organization or government came about. However, I did enjoy this book because its content was somewhat interesting and would recommend it to anyone who isn¿t an idiot and is capable of realizing that this information doesn¿t show the complete steps for any of these things and unless you know what your doing shouldn¿t be tried at home.

Good information

This book does not promote anyone to do anything illegal. Very well written material. I think this is the sort of book that everyone should read. It explains how all things are done. This may help to understand how other societies do things and may protect you in some aspects.

don't agree, don't ban

I don't agree with anything in this book, but banning books is not the answer. You have to fight the problem beneath - why would someone WANT to do anything described in this book?

I like this book

This is one of the best books i have ever read. I don't see how it provokes violence because its just a book. It isn't a book thats bad, it's the person that gets bad thoughts that are violent.

Dangerous for user

Not only does this book encourage illegal acts like bombings and the conversion of legal firearms into illegal firearms, but the recipes for explosives have been known to be dangerous to those who make them. This book has only been responsible for evil, never for good.

A reviewer

I read some of what is in this book and don't exactly believe the title gives much to what the book actually is. This isn't for anarchist as much as it is for nihilist. Most true anarchist aren't all about total and complete destruction as much as they are for the idea and actual pursuit of happiness without a corporal hand in the game. This book is 'ok' for some of what it generalizes on but when it comes to anarchy there isn't anything useful in it. buy it if you want to learn to be a criminal and have an idea on what a bomb is made of. But if you want to be an anarchist read something else and think about your own ideals first.

Anarchism...A substep to the book

Many people see anarchy tags and think death. That has nothing to do with anything. Dont'read the Friggin book if you have no sense in research. Read the book. Word for Word.I am a 14 yr old anarchist. Read the book, intresting and everything.

Anarchist Cookbook for the benefit of society.

I have heard of this book mainly being used for the destruction of society. I am posting this review to help look at the BENEFITS of this book. Many criminologists have used this book to help them in their work. It may help identify home-made drugs, bombs, and other 'recipes' taught from this book. If nothing else, it may be preventive help. IE: If someone is caught stocking up on ingredients for these recipes. I myself have thought of going to school for a career in the feild of criminal psychology, or crime scene investigation, and I feel this book could come into some use in the future for the benfit of society rather than the fall of modern laws.
