3.0

I had a good half hour flick through this at the recent Anarchist Bookfair in London. Whilst I appreciate the effort taken to compile the readings within, I was quite disappointed to find that it was little more than a collection of works (most readily available) with very little original analysis / content. I had high hopes for this book but couldn't help feeling that this was something of a wasted opportunity to bury Bolshevist triumphalist revisionism once and for all.
