Contents include: "Our Riches", "Well-Being for All", "Anarchist Communism", "Expropriation", "Food", "Dwellings", "Clothing", "Ways and Means", "The Need for Luxury", "Agreeable Work", "Free Agreement", "Objections", "The Collectivist Wages System", "Consumption and Production", "The Division of Labour", etc. Pyotr Alexeyevich Kropotkin (1842-1921) was a Russian writer, activist, revolutionary, economist, scientist, sociologist, essayist, historian, researcher, political scientist, geographer, geographer, biologist, philosopher and advocate of anarcho-communism.

He was a prolific writer, producing a large number of pamphlets and articles, the most notable being "The Conquest of Bread and Fields, Factories and Workshops" and "Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution".
