I think a lot of popular communist books that see best-seller lists are really works that pertain to economists. Seeing them recommended to new leftists all the time seems silly. What if you aren't an economist, government figure, or industry leader? In what ways are the lessons of the reading material actually actionable to the average reader?

Of course those works have an intended audience that can act on them, but maybe suggesting them to everybody is more depressing than mobilizing. Suggesting stuff on economic theory just doesn't seem that practicable to the average proletarian.

I'd like to see works that buck this trend so that readers interested in fomenting dissent get immediately practical advice instead of policy to be implemented top-down "after the revolution".

Anyways, nobody working a dead end job wants to read Mark Fischer or Das Kapital.
