Sinopsis

In the century that followed since his death, Marx became the dominant intellectual force in the world. The Russian and Chinese (and many other) revolutions referred back to Marx. His influence can be found in every area of the human and social sciences from literary criticism to world economics. Reviled by some, revered by others, his ghost continues to haunt our world. In a recent BBC poll, Marx was declared Britain?s favourite philosopher. In what has come to be regarded as the classic biography of Marx, David McLellan gives a clear and detailed account both of Marx?s chaotic, dramatic life and of his subtle and path-breaking thought. In this thoroughly revised and updated edition, McLellan has provided a wealth of bibliographical information for reference and further reading. Marx was nothing if not a global thinker and this classic biography is indispensable for anyone wishing to understand our contemporary world.
