well all this talk about "empire" made me curious too. found it on the internet in a print-protected pdf-format. funny when writing against capitalism uses in the meanwhile a capitalist practice. ofcourse half an hour later i had my printable version without too much problem and without using illegal means (shit).

but now comes the hard part. this bloody book counts 496 pages. i guess while all the anti-capitalists are reading this book, the capitalist PTB are gaining more strength, still.
