This is a really excellent introduction to activism, focusing on three subjects specifically: education, organisation and agitation. Really loved it and will be buying a physical copy (from an independent bookshop) asap, but for those with e-readers this is 99p on kindle atm so get on it!

A really clear and informative guide to the ecosystem of activism and organising in the UK. No jargon, no bullshit - just clear springboards for the reader to leap off and act upon.
