<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Includes prefaces to various editions by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The third volume of a political treatise that changed the world</b> <p/>Unfinished at the time of Marx's death in 1883 and first published with a preface by Frederick Engels in 1894, the third volume of <i>Capital</i> strives to combine the theories and concepts of the two previous volumes in order to prove conclusively that capitalism is inherently unworkable as a permanent system for society. Here, Marx controversially asserts that--regardless of the efforts of individual capitalists, public authorities or even generous philanthropists--any market economy is inevitably doomed to endure a series of worsening, explosive crises leading finally to complete collapse. But he also offers an inspirational and compelling prediction; that the end of capitalism will culminate in the birth of a far greater form of society. <p/>For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

Influenced by Hegel, he later reacted against idealist philosophy and began to develop his own theory of historical materialism. He related the state of society to its economic foundations and mode of production, and recommended armed revolution on the part of the proletariat. Together with Engels, who he met in Paris, he wrote the Manifesto of the Communist Party. He lived in England as a refugee until his death in 1888, after participating in an unsuccessful revolution in Germany. Ernst Mandel was a member of the Belgian TUV from 1954 to 1963 and was chosen for the annual Alfred Marshall Lectures by Cambridge University in 1978. He died in 1995 and the Guardian described him as 'one of the most creative and independent-minded revolutionary Marxist thinkers of the post-war world.'
