ReviewsSaad-Filho and Fine have an excellent track record of interpreting Marx in a clear and non-dogmatic style. That this book is in its sixth edition is testimony to its quality. Rather than provide a cookbook that contains multiple examples of what Marx says, Marx's 'Capital' pays close attention to explaining Marx's method, making his work much more understandable and much more valuable. This approach makes the subject far more enjoyable to read than a collection of statements of what Marx really meant. The contextual analysis makes Marx far more easy to read and better to appreciate once a reader sees how Marx built his work up in an effort to clearly understand how the world around him was developing. In short, this book is highly recommended for librarians and for readers in general., Saad-Filho and Fine have an excellent track record of interpreting Marx in a clear and non-dogmatic style.

SynopsisThis brilliantly concise book has established itself over twenty-five years and five editions as the standard companion to Karl Marx's most important work, the sprawling Capital . This new edition retains the features that have made it a crucial teaching tool--a clear explanation of the structure of Marx's analysis, an exploration of his method and terminology, and the significance of his central concepts--while also bringing it fully up to date with the latest scholarship and a clearly written analysis of the continuing relevance of Capital to today's ongoing discussions of politics, economics, and the struggles of capitalism., 'This expert guide to the political economy of Marx's Capital has always been the very best available' - David Harvey This brilliantly concise book is the classic companion to Karl Marx's most well-known work, Capital. In print now for over a quarter of a century, and translated into many languages, this new edition has been fully revised and updated, making it an ideal modern introduction to one of the most important texts in political and economic thought today. The authors cover all central aspects of Marx's economics. They explain the structure of Marx's analysis and the meaning of the key categories in Capital, showing the internal coherence of Marx's approach, and their relevance today. Marx's method and terminology are explored in detail, with supporting examples. Short chapters set out the significance of Marx's main concepts and can be grasped easily, making it a practical text for anyone with an interest in understanding Marx's magnum opus. Discussing Capital's relevance today, the authors keep abstract theorising to a minimum. This readable introduction highlights the continuing relevance of Marx's ideas in the light of the problems of contemporary capitalism.
