unionmack's review against another edition
5.0
I don't want to be one of those guys running around calling himself a Marxist without ever having read his work, so here we are. This is far more of an ideal introduction to his thought than say, The Communist Manifesto. If you took the author's name off this book and handed it to the average citizen, I'm nearly certain they'd find many of the points made salient to this day. While Marx's ideas may have faltered, sometimes brutally, in practice throughout the 20th century, he still remains one of the best critics of capitalism I've come across. It's hard to get to the end of this little pamphlet without realizing the depth to which you're being screwed.
