Review of "Steal This Book"
4 stars
This was surprisingly fun! While most of the practical advice is unfortunately outdated, some general ideas on political organizing seemed very pertinent to me. I appreciated this book as an introduction to the Yippies, the culture/theatre-focused style of changemaking, and Abbie Hoffman. It was great to read a contemporary account of the Berkley People's Park and see what became of it. If you're ready to liberally skip over the parts that are inapplicable, this is a fantastic read!
