Product Description
Product Description
Are you worried about global warming? Furious about GM crops? Sick to death of human rights abuses, unaffordable housing, junk food, airport enlargement, or just the way your neighbours' dog doesn't clean up after itself? Are you desperate to right a wrong or to protect your way of life, but don't know where to start? Then this book is for you. Step by step, journalist and activist Bibi van der Zee reveals just how easy it is to launch, publicise and fund a campaign and to put pressure on politicians and businesses using tools ranging from letter-writing and boycotts to protest marches and direct action. If all that's holding you back is a feeling of 'what difference can I make?', then this book will shake you out of your apathy once and for all.But if all that's holding you back is uncertainty about what you can do or say without landing yourself in jail, you'll find jargon-free explanations of your legal rights, as well as inspiring interviews with veteran campaigners. Above all, you will realise how much you can achieve, and how rapidly the barriers to action fall away.

Format:Paperback
If you want to change the world, and who doesn't, then this book it a wonderful idea. It has many practical ideas and certainly gives you food for thought.
However I would have liked some more detailed information and felt that, although this book is a great starting point, there are a lot more areas that are not covered.

What, in less skilled hands, might have descended into a po-faced rant against the establishment, is in Van der Zee's, a concise, fluent and highly readable manual of rebellion.
Underpinned throughout by indispensable legal advice, the Guardian journalist takes us on a journey covering everything from climate change to Ghandi, Vietnam to the Tollpuddle martyrs, the anti-war movement to Bertrand Russell. Recommended for activists and non-activists alike.
