The Continuum Companion to Anarchism...attempts something much more ambitious than a basic overview of anarchist theory, offering instead a comprehensive guide to the current state of contemporary anarchist studies...It is indispensable. -- Matthew S. Adams, University of Victoria * European Review of History *
