Reviews for Marx
It is what it says it is.
It is indeed a very short introduction, but nonetheless is a good read. If you are like me and have had trouble deciphering the somewhat elusive and esoteric language of Karl Marx you will find this book to be of great help. It is worth remembering that the book is scarcely over a hundred post card sized pages, and it is not intended to be a comprehensive guide. It explains the ideas of Marx as they emerged and changed throughout the course of his lifetime and also passes comment on how his views have come to manifest in the twentieth century. by Henry Wagner
