<b>A collection of essential writings from the influential German philosopher</b> <p/>This ideal introduction to the work of Karl Marx represents his most important writings including the Theses on Feuerbach; the complete <i>Communist Manifesto</i>; and substantial selections from On the Jewish Question the Economic-Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844 <i>The German Ideology</i> <i>Grundrisse</i> <i>Capital</i> and <i>The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte</i> among others. <p/>In addition documents letters and reminiscences offer a portrait of Marx the man--as student husband father enemy and friend. As Eugene Kamenka writes in his introduction This volume perhaps more so than other Marx anthologies attempts to present the man with his individual scars to provide the material for an understanding of Marx himself. Kamenka also includes a chronology of Marx's life and work a reader's guide to special terms and an explanatory index.
