6 Against Technology: From The Luddites To Neo-Luddism Steven E. Jones
Taylor & Francis 0415978688 / 9780415978682 Paperback New 
This book addresses the question of what it might mean today to be a Luddite--that is, to take a stand against technology. Steven Jones here explains the history of the Luddites, British textile works who, from around 1811, proclaimed themselves followers of "Ned Ludd" and smashed machinery they saw as threatening their trade. Against Technology is not a history of the Luddites, but a history of an idea: how the activities of a group of British workers in Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire came to stand for a global anti-technology philosophy, and how an anonymous collective movement came to be identified with an individualistic personal conviction. Angry textile workers in the early nineteenth century became romantic symbols of a desire for a simple life--certainly not the original goal of the actions for which they became famous. Against Technology is, in other words, a book about representations, about the image and the myth of the Luddites and how that myth was transformed over time into modern neo-Luddism.

10 Evasion Crimethinc
Crimethinc 0970910118 / 9780970910110 Paperback New 
Okay - this is one of the best books I've real in the last 5 years. Although I disagree with alot of the author's personal tenets (shoplifting minor fraud) I do agree that the world is a landscape/playground and that the corporate octopus has truly enslaved us all and made us soft. This is written in journal style - one can imagine the author scribbling down his thoughts in front of some coffee house. His frank style is absent in current literature and gives authenticity to his prose. Unknown goes to great pains to put out his philosophy while keeping his adventures in chronological order. Best story: his travels to Milwaukee and the metal fest. I can just imagine him sneaking in to a place he would normally never go.

11 Everything You Know Is Wrong Russ Kick
Disinformation Company 0971394202 / 9780971394209 Paperback New 
From the people who brought us You Are Being Lied To here is another engrossing and infuriating compilation of muckraking articles expos s and provocative claims. Some of the pieces in the book are very timely: an assertion that the government had advance warning of the September 11 terrorist attacks reports of additional gunmen at Columbine High School and additional detailshis contrarian collection will attract a diverse readership from conspiracy nuts to academ on Senator Bob Kerrey's actions in Vietnam. Most of the articles were written for this volume though some appeared previously in reputable magazines and journals (e.g. the Village Voice Toronto Globe & Mail and Journal of Medical Ethics). Not all the pieces deal with political issues; readers will find a wide range of social (Mad Cow Disease) financial (World Bank and the WTO) and cultural topics. A few familiar names appear among the contributors (Howard Zinn Paul Krassner) but most are investigative reporters not well known to the public.

12 Expect Resistance: A Crimethink Field Manual Crimethinc
Crimethinc 0970910169 / 9780970910165 Paperback New 
Expect Resistance is not one but three books each of which may be read as a complete work unto itself. The first book printed in standard black ink continues the inquiry into modern life and its discontents begun in Days of War Nights of Love . Just as that book included improved versions of texts originally published between 1996 and 1999 this book draws on CrimethInc. material from 2000 to 2004 painstakingly refined and augmented with a great deal of new content. The second book in red ink is a composite account related by three narrators of the adventures and tribulations that inevitably ensue when people pursuing their dreams enter into conflict with the world as it is. Together these comprise a third book an exploration of the complex relationship between ideals and reality. Expect Resistance is a field manual for a field on which all manuals are useless a meditation on individual transformation and collective resistance in disastrous times and a masterpiece that raises the bar for radical publishing. Read and Reading Tremble CrimethInc. Launches New Offensive with the Publication of Expect Resistance They called us bourgeois for urging people to abandon bourgeois culture. They called us anti-worker for refusing complicity in exploitation. They dismissed our advocacy of plagiarism as unoriginal. They mocked us for producing paper bullets Then cried foul play when those projectiles hit their targets. When we subsisted on crusts of bread they insisted it was the upper crusts; When we discovered cornucopias of abundance they preferred their sour grapes. We ve been branded militants and dilettantes black bloc and bĂȘte noire primus inter pariahs. We reply as Marie Antoinette might have that they can have their words and eat them too like Samuel Clemens we don t care what our detractors say about us so long as they don t tell the truth. Long ago we embarked on the greatest adventure of our lives: the total rejection of hierarchy submission and tedium of status and status quo. Seceding from an entirely colonized world we cast ourselves as crash-test dummies in a life-or-death mission to smash through the walls of capitalism. Contrary to all expectations we ve survived. To our surprise we are now able to present Expect Resistance a coded account of our adventures hitting those walls and a full report on our findings beyond them. Printed in stunning black and red and bound in the skin of corporate executives Expect Resistance is the perfect coffee table book for anyone who lives out of a backpack. Our writers have spent years experimenting with every possible extremity of existence; our editors have spent months hammering out imperfections and adding sickles to the periods to turn them into question marks; our designers as everyone knows are the best in the business not to mention the best against it. A thousand sleeper cells across the planet prepare to swing into action as this announcement is typed. Concerned citizens may object that some of the raw materials from which this book has been assembled have yet to enter the public domain; we ask them to think of Expect Resistance as a book ahead of its time. Still in love with all of you and the amazing things we have yet to do your faithful ex-workers

15 How It All Began Bommi Baumann
Arsenal Pulp Press 0889780455 / 9780889780453 Paperback New 
How It All Began is the personal testimony of Michael Bommi Baumann a man who in the late 1960s and early '70s was a member of the June 2nd Movement one of the most spectacular urban guerrilla organizations in West Berlin. Of this book Baumann said: Others should understand why people take the road of armed struggle how they come to it how the seeds are planted and what the emotions behind it are what kind of considerations and psychic preconditions are needed to overcome the fear involved. But Baumann ultimately had to make a choice. He renounced violence when he left the June 2nd Movement in 1972. Security police seized the original German edition Wie Alles Anfing when it appeared in 1975. The resulting trial and publicity raised an international outcry and the book ended up being republished in German and translated into six languages. In an age when public protests-against corporate greed against free trade agreements and for social justice-are becoming more frequent and more violent How It All Began provides a fascinating glimpse into the thinking behind urban struggle and the consequences of action. As Baumann himself said Violence is a perfectly adequate means I never had any hangups about it. The first English version of How It All Began was published by Arsenal in 1977 and updated in 1981. Long out of print it has been re-issued making it available to readers once again. Bommi Baumann was a leading member of the June 2nd Movement one of the most active urban guerrilla groups in West Berlin. From a low-income unstable family background Baumann left the movement and the urban guerrilla struggle in 1972 and went underground towrite this book. He was arrested in London in 1981 and there has been no word from him since.
