The original file (http://conspiracycentral.net:6969/stats.html?info_hash=325872d5e5515c7180e93377f5952 d1d2d3def1f) was about 156 Mb. After a little massaging (background/halo removal, deskewing, and partial OCR), I got the size down to ~14 Mb (the quality isn't great, but legible), grab it here (http://www.rorta.net/textfiles/crimethinc.recipes.for.disaster.an.anarchist.cookb ook.pdf) (please make mirrors). Enjoy.
For ten long years, our operatives have honed their skills, testing their wits and mettle against the global capitalist empire, the most formidable adversary in the history of life on earth. We have learned how to redecorate the walls of cities occupied by armies of riot police, to transform random groups of damaged, isolated individuals into loving communities capable of supporting one another through the most severe bouts of repression and depression, to shut down corporate summits and franchises armed with little more than plastic piping or eyedroppers of glue. Now, the notorious CrimethInc. ex-Workers’ Collective has compiled many of the techniques that made these feats possible into a 624-page manual entitled Recipes for Disaster.
Three years in the making, Recipes for Disaster is the long-awaited follow-up to the CrimethInc. collective’s notorious first book, Days of War, Nights of Love. This 624-page manual complements the romance and idealism of that earlier work with practical information and instruction. Over thirty collectives collaborated in testing, composing, and editing the book’s 62 sections, which range from Affinity Groups, Coalition Building, and Mental Health to Sabotage, Squatting, and Wheatpasting. These are illustrated with extensive technical diagrams and first-hand accounts, and prefaced with a thorough discussion of the diverse roles direct action can play in social transformation. If you’re looking for a tactical handbook for revolutionary action, look no further.

~ DVD Supplemental Edition (http://www.rorta.net/textfiles/crimethinc.recipes.for.disaster.supplemental.dvd.d igital.edition.pdf) (mirror (http://files.pig-monkey.com/crimethinc/dvd/cookbook.pdf)) [~2.6Mb].
This is the copy of the ebook that came on the CrimethInc. Guerilla Film Series Vol.1 DVD. It contains no new articles that aren't in the treeware Recipes for Disaster, but does contain nicely formatted versions of the entries marked with an asterisk (*) in the above table of contents.
~ More Recipes for Disaster (http://recipes.crimethinc.net/). This was a blog started by some CrimethInc branch with the intention of posting new recipes that weren't in the original cookbook. It only has two recipes posted and hasn't been updated in close to a year.
~ You can find contact information for CrimethInc here (http://www.crimethinc.com/main/contact.html) if you want to drop them a line asking why the fuck they don't make the entire cookbook available for free online.
