The Green Book (Arabic: الكتاب الأخضر al-Kitāb al-Aḫḍar) is a short book setting out the political philosophy of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi. The book was first published in 1975.[2] It is said to have been inspired in part by The Little Red Book (Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung).[3][4] Both were widely distributed both inside and outside their country of origin, and "written in a simple, understandable style with many memorable slogans".[5] An English translation was issued by the People’s Establishment for Publication, Distribution, and Advertising, an organ of the Libyan People's Committee,[6] and a bilingual English/Arabic edition was issued in London by Martin, Brian & O'Keeffe in 1976. During the Libyan Civil War, copies of the book were burned by anti-Gaddafi demonstrators.[7]

For information, Gaddafi's Green Book was something of a knock-off of Chairman Mao's Red Book.
