Not long ago I was in Barnes and Noble and I saw in the humor section the book "How to Survive a Horror Movie" it was 172 pages of both humor and some common sence, I commited myself to sit down and read the entire book, while it was in the humor section along with the zombie survival guide. I believe it has some credibility as a book to read up on.
On the note of books that come from the humor section, like the Worst Case Scenario books they have practical applications in reality, not only are there survival skills in them, like how to hotwire a car, to how to land a plane; Along with the Action Hero's and Heroines Handbook, while many may take humor books for granted as something silly they can not be all discounted. More importantly the knowledge inside them is backed up by actual professionals. I dare say that its better to find survival information in such books then paying a load of money out of pocket for a stack of 20 or so books that only talk about a few things.
I would also endorse the use and reading of the Anarchist Cookbook by William Powel, for those who wish to flesh out there knowledge for life and survival.
For the record persons who find and read things like the Anarchist Cookbook have commited no crime, however those who are familar with the movie Bowling for Columbine will note those who possess the book in a situation such as what happened there would be suspect to police. But there is not law against possessing such information for entertainment purposes.
I hope this will aid those who seek knowledge, If there are any interested parties who would like some helpful cookbooks or files on the subject feel free to contact me.

Just a quick note. You will find some who have a strong bias against Zombie Survival Guide on this site.
All that needs to be said is this: FIRE = BAD
noted, nice to see no one has bashed the other choices yet

However, and I'm sure the boss man will agree with me on this, we try to keep from getting too close to actual instruction (ala the Cookbook) on this site. We don't want to be on any more watch lists than we probably already are.

my friend has that book, it makes for an interesting read.
The one word that describes how i live: B.E.B.Z

Oh, yeah, you heard me! THE MUPPET SHOW SAID SO!!!
Then how are you supposed to help people learn who want to learn if you give the wrong directions and instructions ?
In the next few days I'll be doing a lesson on my yahoo group regarding the Anarchist's Cookbook by William Powel and I will post a copy of the information found in the book on my group free to all my members.
I will however extend that information to any person on here, who is of reasonable sense, all that need be done is to send me a message on here and provide your email address, and proof that your at least 18 yrs of age.

Yeah, just...wow.
"They drew first blood not me..." (Stallone in Rambo: First Blood)
It is indeed wow, once I was like many others, without knowledge of what I sought, I was given a link to a cyber heaven, my benifactor gave me no name of themselves.
Just the message "You seek knowledge then use this, for knowledge is power".
Many people are scared of some knowledge, they are scared of it because they have never known it before, others because of what it can do.
I do not fear knowledge in any form, what we choose to do with our knowledge is up to us, as long as we accept the responsibility that goes with it.
I firmly believe this with every fiber of my being, for those who seek my knowledge feel free to seek friendship with it.

I like this sentiment, and I should point out, I'm less afraid of being on a government watch list and more concerned about some dumb kid reading about it and deciding to try it but burning himself or worse because he's dumb.
I'm actually a little curious ... I haven't heard that there is much to use in the book. Would someone care to explain how its worth reading?
All that needs to be said is this: FIRE = BAD
Eliot you ask whats the point in reading it, well its quite simple.
Knowledge for the sake of knowledge, to maintain the balance between the factions civilians and the government, we the people who helped found the current government have the right to freedoms, press, speech, religion, and most of all choice this is from the bill of rights.
such chaptersand excerpts include natural, nonlethal and lethal weapons, if this a group for helping other to fight and survive a world war z then a person will need to learn to become a weapon unto themselves, and be able to help others should the need arise.
one excerpt involves the use of the garrote to take a sentery's head off, silently, take this to mind if you encounter a lone zombie, why waste a bullet and draw attention to other zombies when kill one and keep going with no losses to your side.
another excerpt speaks on guerrilla training, a guerrilla fighter must feel no fear, or doubt, bare that in mind when it comes to dealing with zombies then you have a better way to train for the impending disaster.
there is information in there on survaillance, how to create your own wire taps, bugs the works also which can be used to help your casstle or what ever structure you have.
there those are the facts for you, the facts and the bill of rights clear as crystal and legal as all, any questions?
Ken Bullard
Yes, but it was we the people who allowed them to pass the laws saying that it is illegal to make explosives. It was we the people who turned around and let these people take certain freedoms away. It was we the people who let the gun laws in certain states be denied for a losing cause to lower the crime. WE THE PEOPLE have done this to ourselves.
We are here to discuss possible ways to survive the zombie apocalypse. This means we all stay law abiding citizens until the day comes. Plus, you might not have noticed that most of the anarchist cookbooks are useless sacks of shit. Most of the new books (1991+) are full of harmful information that would blow up in your face when you go to bake the ingredients. I know because my friend's arm is permanently scarred from a simple instruction on how to make an improvised safety flare. Go figure.
That would probably mean we would have to get within arms range. This has been discussed and found reckless endangerment. Use a pillow to silence the blast. Duh.
You can still look up the same information on the Wikipedia. Hell, I am sure I could Google Gorilla Warfare Tactics and get the same - if not better - information. I wouldn't trust any information on warfare unless it is affiliated with a military group.
How would this be helpful when we expect all electricity to be down within weeks of the initial outbreak?
Legal is the question. Sure, gambling is legal 5 miles off the shore of Florida, but does that mean it's still right to do as such?
