Great media hints and tips on effective press releases from Peter Wirth, a partner at a public relations firm that provides services to activist organizations.
Organizing for Social Change : The Midwest Academy Manual for Activists By Steve Max, Kim Bobo and Heather Booth. I consider this book the "organizer's bible."

Shaw, a longtime activist for urban issues, shows how positive change can still be accomplished- despite an increasingly grim political order-if activists employ the strategies set forth in this desperately needed primer.
