Stealing Is Wrong....


Abbie Hoffman's counterculture classic Steal This Book was a practical guide for the aspiring hippie of the late 20th century. And while much of its advice on hitchhiking, living in communes, growing marijuana, starting a pirate radio station, shoplifting and making pipe bombs is somewhat dated, it serves as an inspirational look into a way of life and a brand of philosophy that is still quite valid.

If you haven't had a chance to read it yet, now is a better time than any.
