The Marxist System: Economic, Political, and Social Perspectives

by Robert Freedman

"Freedman effectively integrates the economic, philosophical, and historical dimensions of Marx′s thought. The book is clear but not simplistic, succinct yet comprehensive, and thoroughly reliable. One will not find a better or more balanced survey on the subject."

[Jack Lindgren · Rating 3 out of 5]

I got this book for free from a library "free books that we're throwing away" cart. Thought it was a decent overview of Marxist thought, especially because I don't particularly fancy actually reading Marx himself. I don't recall it saying much of anything about "social perspectives" though.
