The Civil Disobedience Handbook

From Thoreau's classic essay On the Duty of Civil Disobedience (reprinted in its entirety) to contemporary direct-action tactics used by the Ruckus Society and other nonviolent groups, this handbook outlines a brief history of social protest and provides information and resources for individuals interested in continuing the tradition. Advice on evertything from being arrested to defending women's health clinics is included.
