Fanon, Frantz. The Wretched of the Earth. Grove Press, 1986. From the back of the book: "Written in anger, this book by a distinguished Negro psychiatrist and leading spokesman of the revolution which won independence for Algeria is no mere diatribe against the white man or the West. It is a brilliant examination of the role of violence in effecting historical change which has served leaders of emerging nations as a veritable handbook of revolutionary practice and social reorganization."
