The Anarchist Cookbook will shock, it will disturb, it will provoke. It places in historical perspective an era when "Turn on, Burn down, Blow up" are revolutionary slogans of the day. Says the author" "This book... is not written for the members of fringe political groups, such as the Weatherman, or The Minutemen. Those radical groups don't need this book. They already know everything that's in here. If the real people of America, the silent majority, are going to survive, they must educate themselves. That is the purpose of this book." In what the author considers a survival guide, there is explicit information on the uses and effects of drugs, ranging from pot to heroin to peanuts. There i detailed advice concerning electronics, sabotage, and surveillance, with data on everything from bugs to scramblers. There is a comprehensive chapter on natural, non-lethal, and lethal weapons, running the gamut from cattle prods to sub-machine guns to bows and arrows.

'"Originality" is only plagiarizing from a great many', remarked Rupert Brooke, stealing the line from Voltaire. Questions of originality, and accusations of plagiarism, are as old as literature, but different literary cultures have interpreted the relationship between originality and plagiarism in startlingly dissimilar ways.Original Copy investigates and documents the drastic reappraisal of literary originality and plagiarism which occurred over the course of the nineteenth century: from the heroic visions of original authorship that characterised the 1820s and 1830s, through to the stickle-brick creativity of Oscar Wilde and Lionel Johnson at the century's end. It reveals how ideas of originality and plagiarism were not only a theoretical concern of Victorian commentators on literature, but also providedmany important Victorian writers - Eliot, Dickens, Reade, Pater, Wilde, and Lionel Johnson among them - with a creative resource. Moving between numerous different fields of thought and knowledge - literary criticism, the history of science, manuscript culture, anthropology - and written in a supple andelegant style, this book shows that the ideas of originality and plagiarism were the subjects of nineteenth-century literature, as well as what it was subject to.

Be faithful and mind your word. Be original not a copy; let your word proof your personality and make difference by your truth. Many people have lost their dignity and their glory through their words. Others have disgraced themselves by their lies. The world is going into destruction through lies of those who dwell on it, and the truth has to tremble on the ground. Do not force your words to be factual whiles know you are deceiving. Be faithful but not a liar; be gentle but not a pretender, be smart but not as a thief. Maintain your faithfulness and do not lie for a favour but approve yourself for good use. Never put yourself into trouble through lies but consider your speech and make your words fruitful. Let your words be simple and meaningful to your audience. Do not rush in your speech but be careful when delivering a message. It is not good to shout but it is good to blend in some time. But in all, do not lie when giving out your message. It is better to make simple messages than to prolong your message. Why because it is possible to make a mistake and lie at the same time. Be aware and make things decent but do not disgrace yourself in the area you have not been there before. Means do not discuss the lessons you do not understand. Else, you will lie and disgrace yourself through inconsistent speech. But always watch out and control yourself in position without wrong comments later on. Faithfulness controls peace and makes things better and encouraging. Do not make news where there are no happenings. Do not pollute the air by your false message but make the air blow at ease. Be faithful when you buy; be faithful when you exchange, be faithful when you walk and talk. You can build a city by faithfulness and you can destroy the city through unfaithfulness.
