This new edition of C. J. Arthur’s student edition of Marx’s most famous text is re-issued for Marx’s 200th birthday in May 2018. Marx’s Capital: A Student Edition makes one of the most influential texts of the modern era open and accessible to readers as never before.

Karl Marx’s Capital was first published in 1867, since when it has become the classic text of Marxism for professional
economists, social scientists, philosophers, students, and political activists alike. But the sheer extent of Marx’s great work of political economy has often daunted readers, and hampered their understanding of his ideas. Harold Wilson once jokingly claimed he gave up when he came across a two-page footnote on the first page.

C.J. Arthur, whose student edition of The German Ideology by Marx and Engels has long proved popular, has substantially edited and abridged Marx’s monumental work. His efforts make this book, one of the most influential texts of the modern era, open and accessible to readers as never before.
