How to Read Karl Marx

Ernst Fischer has crafted a brief, clear, and faithful exposition of Marx’s main premises, with particular emphasis on historical context. This new edition of the English translation of Was Marx wirklich sagte (1968) includes new contributions by John Bellamy Foster that sharpen Fischer’s focus for today’s readers. Also included are a biographical chronology, extracts from major works of Marx, and “Marx’s Method,” a valuable essay by the political economist Paul Sweezy.
