A review by torvosaur
Marx, Capital and the Madness of Economic Reason by David Harvey
3.0
Well, this book is written in typical Harvey style, elaborating concepts in a way that are easy to understand for most people.
However, some parts of the book - especially those that elaborate the three volumes of capital and the 7th and 8th are dense and require a thorough reading. I really liked his older book "17 Contradictions" better than this one, this book sort of gets muddled and very dry in the middle, although the final chapter is very insightful and instructive in the light of the current crises.
More detailed review to follow.
