Author of Anarchist's Cookbook recants

The Anarchist’s Cookbook was published over 40 years ago but it’s still going strong. Meanwhile, its author has spent the last four decades teaching in developing nations, and has a message for us all: he was wrong. He took to The Guardian to condemn his earlier work, saying that he has gained an understanding that “violence can’t be used to prevent more violence.”
