Marx in 90 Minutes

Rating:
Summary: Strathern At His Best
Review: I have made a point of reading each book in Paul Strathern's "--in 90 Minutes" series on philosphers and thinkers as they have been published. His slender volume on Karl Marx represents Strathern at his ironically informed best. Solid information presented with insight and humor. I cannot imagine a better starting point for an introduction to Marx and Marxism. Highly readable.

Summary: Great Read!
Review: I wanted some quick information on Marx, oddly enough I found this book in the public library and thought I would give it a shot. It is a small book, but very informative and easy to read. It does leave thirsty for more. I too have, as the reviewer below, have tried to read all of Paul Strathern's ... in 90 minutes series.
