Anarchist Cookbook
by William Powell
The Anarchist Cookbook, first published in 1971, is a book that contains instructions for the manufacture of explosives, rudimentary telecommunications phreaking devices as well as some dangerous, and in many places illegal, items; while some have merit, other 'recipes' have been shown to be flawed or dangerous or both.
