Paperback format now available

Hey folks, this title is available for just 20 bucks at BarnesandNoble, in paperback. And, as reported by NPR, a huge online consortium of independent booksellers will soon be open to the public, selling books via the web!Also, if you are into the subject of this book, check out _Rethinking Marxism_, especially Roger Burbach's article in Volume 10, Number 1, 1998. Burbach refers to this book and other like-minded books, journals, and intellectuals. And certainly check out Antonio (Toni) Negri, including the _Politics of Subversion_ and _Communists Like Us: New Lines of Alliance_. The latter title was co-authored with Felix Guattari while Negri was imprisoned; and sadly, Negri has been imprisoned again. For a transcript of the truly Orwellian proceedings which led to his imprisonment, see _Revolution Retrieved_.
