About these books:_________________________ The Society of the Spectacle by Guy Debord - The Society of the Spectacle is many things. It is a critique of capitalism and mass-market culture, the beginning of the Situationist movement and one of the most important philosophical treatises of the 20th Century. The spectacle is the subversion of social relationships with the appearance of those interactions through media and commodities. Society has been subverted by the Spectacle through "the decline of being into having, and having into merely appearing." The Society of the Spectacle is a guide to the alienation of modern society, forming the underpinnings of a postmodern culture that is supplanted with images of what once was real. Archery: How to Make Bows & Arrows by Fred C. Mills - Hidden behind that impenetrable curtain of time drawn by the ages, lies the story of the origin of the bow. The question which came first to man, fire or the bow, will probably never be answered, but stone arrow heads have been found that indicate that the history of the bow goes back for at least 25,000 years. So begins this treatise on archery compiled by Fred C. Mills for the Boy Scouts of America in 1929. We thought you might like this little gem wəb even if it is a little old and out of date. Rambo probably knew how to make his own bow long before he thought of using explosive arrow heads to rain fiery death upon his enemies. Enjoy (responsibly)! The Coming Insurrection by The Invisible Committee - The Coming Insurrection by the Invisible Committee; 110 page perfect bound book printed & published by Last Word Press in Olympia, WA.From whatever angle you approach it, the present offers no way out. This is not the least of its virtues. From those who seek hope above all, it tears away every firm ground. Those who claim to have solutions are contradicted almost immediately. Everyone agrees that things can only get worse. “The future has no future” is the wisdom of an age that, for all its appearance of perfect normalcy, has reached the level of consciousness of the first punks. From Wiki: The Coming Insurrection is a French radical leftist, anarchist tract written by The Invisible Committee, the nom de plume of an anonymous author (or possibly authors). It hypothesizes the "imminent collapse of capitalist culture". The Coming Insurrection was first published in 2007 by Editions La Fabrique, and later (2009) translated into English and published by Semiotext(e). Last Word Press in Olympia, Washington also published an edition. The book is notable for the media coverage which it received as an example of a radical leftist manifesto, particularly from American conservative commentator Glenn Beck. The Coming Insurrection is also known for its association with the legal case of the Tarnac Nine, a group of nine young people including Julien Coupat who were arrested in Tarnac, rural France, on November 11, 2008 "on the grounds that they were to have participated in the sabotage of overhead electrical lines on France's national railways". The Tarnac Nine were variously accused of conspiracy, sabotage, terrorism, and being the author(s) of The Coming Insurrection. Backwoods Surgery & Medicine by Charles Stuart Moody, M.D. - Backwoods Surgery & Medicine, written a century ago, contains much relevant knowledge for how to treat the most common injuries, as well as more serious threats to life found in backcountry travel. Minor and compound fractures of limbs, bites from frost and snake, lions and tigers and bears, Moody describes the simplest methods of dealing with injuries in a clear, if archaic voice. Your great-grandfather probably read this book and saved your grandfather during a camping trip in the summer of 1923, thus resulting in your birth and the ability to read these pages now a century later. Unusual Plans, Projects & Formulas - Ever wanted to build an engine lathe or your own crystal radio? How about amazing your friends with your own self-built Tesla Coil? Unusual Plans gives you step-by-step instructions on how to make all of these and more. Don’t miss the chapter on making your own smoke grenades in order to disorient your adversaries before striking them dead with a giant Tesla Coil. Industrial Society & Its Future by Ted Kaczynski (The Unabomber's Manifesto) - He was a gifted mathematician, one of the youngest people to ever teach at Berkeley, a product of the CIA's MKUltra program while a student at Harvard, a recluse and a part-time philosopher. He was also a terrorist, known to the FBI by the acronym UNABOM (UNiversity and Airline BOMBer), thus the media moniker UNABOMBER. His manifesto, "Industrial Society & Its Future" is, in part, the disturbed rantings of a neo-Luddite, as well as a critical analysis of late, modern capitalism and the ills of an over-consumptive society seemingly hell-bent on its own destruction.
