I like Mike Gonzales's work and this little book, within its constraints, is no exception. It has two functions, I think: It's and introduction for people who really have no idea who Marx was, and a reminder for more advanced readers that Marx was a revolutionary first, philosopher second. Rather thin on Marx's 'system' of ideas, but good enough for a primer.

وكأنك لم تعرف عن الماركسية من قبل .. كتيب عظيم ومميز لأنه على غير العادة بيتطرق لحياة ماركس وتطور افكاره 


*حينما هاجم باكونين فكرة بناء منظمة مركزية منظبطة، اجاب ماركس انها "اداة للثورة وليست نادٍ للنقاش، للنضال وليست للنظريات"* فلسفة ماركس ثورية وحياة طافحة بالكفاح اثبات كافى على اخلاصه لأفكاره.

الكتاب من تأليف مايك چونزاليس وليس من تأليف كارل ماركس

Short and interesting introduction to the life of Karl Marx and his philosophy, really enjoyed the fact that it was brief.

Rebel as code word for middle class young man living on government handouts, a potential die hard conformist to the Marxist cause.

An excellent introduction to Marx.

I recommend this very short book (60 pages) to any beginner in marxist theory. This book is basically a summary of Marx's life (what he did, where he did it, how he did it, his theories, etc...). So once you've read this you'll be able to understand better marxist debates.


Besides there is a nice paragraph in the end full of book recommendations in case you want to widen your knowledge of Karl Marx.

بعدد صفحات قليلة جدا استطاع غونزاليس أن يكتب ما يوصف بواحد من أفضل التلخيصات لحياة أعظم الفلاسفة حتى يومنا هذا.. كتاب رائع يستحق القراءة بجدارة وبخاصة لغير المختصين في المسألة الماركسية لمفرداته البسيطة وشروحاته وتحليلاته المنطقية

Very good introduction. Sometimes pro-Marx bias (at the expense of other areas of radical leftist thought) was all too telling, but besides that, very good, interesting and enlightening.

One feels as if this pamphlet is a stone which skimmed the surface of Marx's life, however you can't really expect more from just under 60 pages.
