<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This beginners guide to <i>Capital</i> illustrates the key concepts, humour, and immense vitality to be enjoyed in Marx's great work.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Imagine Karl Marx as a cartoonist, ready to set the record straight about his much maligned classic, <i>Das Kapital</i>. Impossibly difficult? Not in the least. Hopelessly outdated? Far from it. Though first published in 1867, <i>Capital</i> remains keenly relevant. Society continues to run on investment and profit, labor and technology. And predictions that once might have seemed rash--global economic crisis, societies nearing bankruptcy--are now simply facts. <i>Capital</i> remains the fullest attempt to explain these facts, and <i>Marx's Capital Illustrated</i> brings this attempt to vibrant life, proceeding all the way from the ABCs to the pertinence of Marx's theory of crisis for today's global woes. <p/>Fresh, funny, and copiously illustrated, this book is for everyone who wants better insight into Capital and capitalism. Readers of Marx, unite! You have found your starting point.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Valuable...in some respects more so than all the interpretations and popularizations I have read. -- C.L.R. James <p/>[<i>Marx's Capital Illustrated</i>] is very, very good, a brilliant exposition and a really creative relationship between image and explanation. -- John Berger<br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>David Smith is the editor of a forthcoming English-language volume of <i>Marx's Notes on Global Capitalism and Non-Western Culture</i> for Yale University Press. His publications include articles in many scholarly journals, including <i>Sociological Theory</i>, <i>Rethinking Marxism</i>, <i>The American Psychologist</i>, and <i>Current Perspectives in Social Theory.</i> <p/>Phil Evans is a longtime political cartoonist based in England. He has illustrated Marx's Kapital for Beginners and Understanding Economics, among many other books.<br>
