2.0 out of 5 stars Fatally erroneous, but a classic nevertheless, 8 Nov 2003
By A Customer
After being inspired by the webpages scattered throughout the Internet known loosely as 'The Anarchist Cookbook', I came across this, and I can only assume that the web-based versions are imitations of this - needless to say large amounts of it can be found freely on the Internet, but lacking the hand-drawn diagrams of the 'real McCoy'. However, this book should not be taken seriously. Not only is it at least 20 years old, but in over 15 publishings it has never been updated. William Powell, at the time, claimed he got his information from secret sources of his. Now, he is trying in vain to get this book taken out of print (some legal loophole or other prevents this from happening). This book contains hugely erroneous information, which, if taken seriously, may maim or kill you. Search the internet for 'anarchist cookbook error' and you will understand. And its author does not endorse it. It is a timeless classic, but is by no means the definitive 'be-all-and-end-all' of anarchist treachery. And now that the price has risen from £16 to £30 it hardly seems worthwhile.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is the book that started it all, 28 Mar 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Anarchist Cookbook (Paperback)
Well, this is it. The original underground illegal infomation publication. It caused a lot of debate when it was first relesed, back in the seventies. Now it is very out of date, with a lot of references that apply only to US laws and lifestyle. The recipies don't work all the time - many are dangerously unstable. Yet, parts are still releviant to today, in the UK. A must buy, simply because it is a classic. And don't think that you wont waste your money and download it, because there isn't a full copy on the Net.

3.0 out of 5 stars Use with caution, 28 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Anarchist Cookbook (Paperback)
I would recommend this book to anyone who has an interest only in the methods used in this book, I am in the British Army and I can say from experiance "The methods used are only best used if you understand them 100%". The making of bombs or other things in this book are unstable and will cause you to hurt yourself or kill your self. You have been warned.

A very well written book - never fully reproduced on the net, though some peices are lying around. If you ever wanted to know about drugs, explosives, et al. this book is for you.
