“For conveniences of the readers, this Guide to Self-Liberation and its recommended reading materials are edited into six volumes. It is based on two considerations. At first, recommended reading pages from one book will be organized in the same volume. Secondly, each volume may include several books so that the size of them can be almost equal. The translated version has kept the original page numbers for easy references. We have treated the Guide to Self-Liberation as an overview in a separate volume. Volume I of extended readings contains: “The Politics of Nonviolent Action,” “There Are Realistic Alternatives,” and “The Anti-Coup;” Reading materials of “Waging Nonviolent Conflict;” “On Strategic Nonviolent Conflict;” “Social Power and Political Freedom;” and “From Dictatorship to Democracy” are collected in Volume 2, 3, 4, and 5, separately and respectively. Readers are encouraged to study these translated reading materials in the sequence as Dr. Gene Sharp has strongly recommended.”
