well done; engaging and easy to understand, with dumbing down marx’s original material

Absolutely vital introduction as a preparation before reading the actual book.

Pretty good and not overly complicated! Great for an idiot like me who can't read for more than 5 minutes without forgetting everything. The "illustrated" aspect is pretty pointless though, aside from making me feel like i read more lol. They don't really help explain anything like I was hoping they would. I still don't fully understand everything but I think I at least know more than before I read it

Incredible introduction to Marx and honestly I feel like it would be a great study companion for capital itself. I really enjoyed reading it and found all the concepts to be easy to understand and grasp, while still retaining the concepts themselves.

Probably 2.5 stars because I was annoyed they used ugly font styles for text and the illustrations were sometimes very sloppy

A fantastic introduction—as far as I know before reading the source material! And I'm much more likely to tackle the real stuff now that I've grasped some basic concepts. (And now that I've been advised by this book to skip to Marx's 10th chapter and double back later.)
