After being so enthralled by Blueprint For Revolution I wanted to read another book by Srđa. Unfortunately this one is a very short and somehow watered-down version of Blueprint's highlights. It focuses only on dilemma actions: what they are and why they work. Then there's some extra talk about laughtivism, but again, nothing that Blueprint doesn't cover.

The only new datapoint for me was a link to a BBC article which claims that nonviolent protests engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.

So yeah, feel free to skip this one. But do read Blueprint For Revolution. Please.
