The Essential Marx (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780486451169)

Shortly before he was assassinated in 1940, Leon Trotsky -- one of Marx's most devoted converts and a key figure in the Russian Revolution -- made this selection from Capital, to which he appended his own lengthy and insightful introduction. Compact and fascinating, this invaluable work not only presents Marx's thoughts in his own words but also places them in the swirling context of the 20th century. A critical analysis of ideas that have influenced millions of lives for well over a century, this book will be an important addition to the libraries of students and instructors of economics, history, government, and Communist thought.
