A compelling work to be studied and applied to new conditions each generation.

An exposition of anarchism by one of its greatest propagandists and clearest thinkers. In a conversational style, Berkman discusses society as it now exists, the need for anarchism, and the methods for bringing it about. His primary goal for writing the book was to dispel the misinformation concerning the aspirations of anarchists in the minds of average people. The secondary goal was to reexamine the movement after the Russian Revolution and to promote the fact that authoritarian methods cannot lead to liberty, indeed: methods and aims must be identical to ensure lasting equality and freedom.
