Marx and Human Nature

Norman Geras was Professor in the Department of Government at Manchester University. He was an important part of the New Left movement and an editorial board member and contributor at New Left Review.

This remarkable short book deserves to be widely read and not only by those interested in Marxology. For it achieves something rare in its field: rationally compelling proof. Not only does it conclusively refute a widely current legend about Marx's thought . it does so with striking elegance, economy, and argumentative power.
