From my understanding, the later english translations of this book can be very (((sketchy))) at times. Does anyone know a good place to look for a legitimate copy with a proper english translation? Yes I could jewgle it, but I trust you goats more than I trust search results. Any specific editions I should keep my eye open for?
Also, I'd prefer a hard copy over a digital one. Just in case the internet ever goes down...these ideas need to live on.

This is a new translation and likely one of the best.

I remember an older translation which appeared somewhat more accurate in tone but was harder to read. The German original is strenous at times, probably because people were more used to complicated sentences. Reading was the only type of entertainment. If that translation is indeed easier to read, it would be better than the original by that standard. (Most German newspaper articles from the 30s would get the author fired from today's editorial departments. Even ad copy from the time requires effort.)
