'Imperative reading for those engaged in Marx's political economy and its application to contemporary capitalism.' - Prof. Ben Fine, School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), UK'The first edition of Capital, Exploitation and Economic Crisis was the best critical introduction to Marxist economic theory. John Weeks has now restated and strengthened his original argument, in particular by engaging in detail with more mainstream neoclassical and Keynesian economics, and he has brought it up to date with a final chapter on the global economic and financial crisis that started in 2007. An indispensable book for anyone trying to understand Marx and capitalism'. - Prof. Alex Callinicos, King's College London, UK'The book was to have been a trivial revision of his previous book, Capital and Exploitation (1982), but in fact has become a substantially new book...A great deal can be learned from a close reading of its insightful explanations and often provocative arguments. In particular, the author's treatment of net product and gross product is a catalyst for future scholarly research in this area.' - Cheol-Soo Park, Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY
