In this essential new biography--the first to give equal weight to both the work and life of Karl Marx--Sven-Eric Liedman expertly navigates the imposing, complex personality of his subject through the turbulent passages of global history. A World to Win follows Marx through childhood and student days, a difficult and sometimes tragic family life, his far-sighted journalism, and his enduring friendship and intellectual partnership with Friedrich Engels. Building on the work of previous biographers, Liedman employs a commanding knowledge of the nineteenth century to create a definitive portrait of Marx and his vast contribution to the way the world understands itself. He shines a light on Marx's influences, explains his political and intellectual interventions, and builds on the legacy of his thought. Liedman shows how Marx's masterpiece, Capital, illuminates the essential logic of a system that drives dizzying wealth, grinding poverty, and awesome technological innovation to this day. Compulsively readable and meticulously researched, A World to Win demonstrates that, two centuries after Marx's birth, his work remains the bedrock for any true understanding of our political and economic condition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39285145501741,"sku":"","price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0374\/0001\/8989\/products\/xa925864c926da7aac0ea83e1c0755a3dd.jpg?v=1616106990","url":"https:\/\/shop.redflag.org.au\/products\/world-to-win-a-the-life-and-works-of-karl-marx","provider":"Red Flag Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
