The "Grundrisse" is widely regarded as one of Marx's most important and influential texts with many critics claiming is the centre piece of his entire oeuvre. It is a notoriously difficult text however and more than any other of Marx's works, the "Grundrisse "requires both commentary and interpretation. In this first guide and introduction to reading this difficult work, Simon Choat helps us to understand Marx's working methods and the development of his thought. It also helps de-tangle the theoretical knots of perhaps the most significant Marxian text to be published since his death in 1883.This reader's guide will set the "Grundrisse" in its context explaining its central themes, and offering detailed commentary on the entire text.The Grundrisse's reflections on pre-capitalist economic formations, the role of machinery, the nature of money, and the development of capitalism have influence generations of Marxist thinkers, from Anglo-American historians such as Eric Hobsbawm and Robert Brenner to Continental philosophers like Antonio Negri and Giles Deleuze. Contemporary examples will be used to both illuminate the often difficult technical points that Marx makes and to illustrate the continuing relevance of the "Grundrisse "and will guide readers on: -Philosophical and Historical Context-Key Themes-Reading the Text-Reception and Influence
