A good little synthesis of data interpretation, from statistics to charts to syllogisms. Word of warning though, at the end, pushes its agenda a bit too far, blabbing about media concentration theories and gets in a cynic mood; tone of the book shifts 180°. As an example, author says reality TV is stupid, well, that's his opinion (and mine as well), but I believe it does not belong in a book that is supposed to be about reasoning and analysis. Fortunately that part is less than a sixth of show more the whole book. show less
Good overview of history, practice, and ideas of anarchism. Does not go in depth on any particular issues, but a great way to get an anarchist's perspective on anarchism.
Testo utile per le scuole superiori, raccoglie informazioni di base sulle strategie per infinocchiare le coscienze e qualche suggerimento per evitarle. Molti riferimenti al Canada.
