About this Item

From the founding father of Anarchist Communism. First French edition, preceded by a 1902 English edition. Upper wrapper hinge repaired, chips to head and foot of spine, book leaning, pages toned. Overall a Good copy of a pretty fragile work, and a rare survival in original wrappers. *** Kropotkin's most famous book it maintains that cooperation within a species has been a historical factor in the development of social institutions, and in fact, that the avoidance of competition greatly increases the chances of survival and raises the quality of life. He contended that mutual aid is a factor that is both biological and voluntary in nature, and is an enabler of progressive evolution. Without it, life as we know it could not exist.
