This is the most accessible piece of writing that I have ever read on the subject of anarchist philosophy and history. An extremely thorough and inspiring work with tons of references for continued exploration. This book really ties the room together.

interesting reflection on post anarchist thought

An enlightening compilation of essays that reconstructed my understanding and perception of Anarchism. Although I can't say this book completely radicalized me, it definitely reaffirmed and expanded upon some of my opinions.

I say this is a great book to read to get a perspective on anarchism, and to understand it beyond the Hollywood characterization of it.

The heavy use of the “royal we” is very telling. The author is pretty clear in sharing his left leaning view of anarchy as just another avenue to dismantle the state, in order to replace it with *better* systems that somehow would be free of a ruling class of decision makers deciding what is best for everyone else.
