Abbott Howard Hoffman, noto come Abbie Hoffman, fu un eminente attivista sociale e politico americano, diventato un'icona della ribellione giovanile e dell'attivismo radicale degli anni '60. Nella sua autobiografia, si descrisse come un anarchico. Hoffman fu co-fondatore del Youth International Party, o "Yippies". Svolse un ruolo centrale nelle proteste durante la Convention Nazionale Democratica del 1968, che portarono al suo processo insieme ad altri nei procedimenti dei "Chicago Eight" (poi "Chicago Seven").
Still Notorious, Radical, and Revolutionary 50 Years Later. A survival guide from one of the greatest creative organizers of the 20th century-now with a new foreword by co-conspirator, Lisa Fithian.
A driving force behind the social revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, Hoffman inspired a generation to challenge the status quo. Meant as a practical guide for the aspiring hippie, Steal This Book captures Hoffman's puckish tone. Outrageously illustrated by R. Crumb, it nevertheless conveys a serious message to all would-be revolutionaries: You don't have to take it anymore. Illustrations.
A book from the U.S. underground, covering Abbie--in disguise--interviewing people, touring the FBI building, and organizing a campaign to save the St. Lawrence River. The articles are creative, funny, nervy, and political.
