This, of course, is a classic by someone who did not always toe the party line. Excellently written - if you are a beginner, this is a non-partisan, non-propagandist, level-headed and objective introduction to Marx's main ideas.

Really helpful for my studying for just giving me a good clear overview of Marx's key ideas!

Probably the best intro to Marx and his basic ideas I've read yet.
