"My aim is to get you to read a book by Karl Marx called Capital, Volume 1, and to read it on Marx's own terms."
The biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression has generated a surge of interest in Marx's work in the effort to understand the origins of our current predicament. For nearly forty years, David Harvey has written and lectured on Capital, becoming one of the world's most foremost Marx scholars.
Based on his recent lectures, this current volume aims to bring this depth of learning to a broader audience, guiding first-time readers through a fascinating and deeply rewarding text. A Companion to Marx's Capital offers fresh, original and sometimes critical interpretations of a book that changed the course of history and, as Harvey intimates, may do so again.

Reviews

"Harvey is a scholarly radical; his writing is free of journalistic cliches, full of facts and carefully thought-through ideas." Richard Sennett "Navigating effortlessly between history, economics, geography and politics, with persuasive argument and lucid prose, David Harvey places today's headlines in context and makes sense of the early twenty-first-century maelstrom we're all caught up in." Susan George "A magisterial work." Fredric Jameson" "Written in the same thought-provoking but still composed style that characterises Harvey's previous works, this book offers invaluable insights and assistance for everybody interested in unravelling the contradictions of the current crisis following the methods set out by Marx some 150 years ago." Socialist Review
