Thank you for your comments, PhXAnarchy - however, some feedback on whether the torrent is OK would be appreciated. Incidentally, I'm afraid my motivation for uploading the torrent is unlikely to be Judeo-Christian guilt as I am an atheist.

Hopefully it won't come to what PhXAnarchy suggests. If more people took the time to read books like this, and actually implement some of the ideas in their everyday life, it wouldn't have to come to a 'global anarchist revolution'.
Thanks for the torrent, works fine for me.
