Marxism

Philosophy and Economics

By: Thomas Sowell

Narrated by: Christopher Louis

Marxism is a term that many people freely use, but few seem to grasp its implications. Sowell's book is the antidote to this problem. He writes in a fluid and easy-to-follow manner, leading the listener through the Marxian scheme of ideas. Along the way, he shatters some existing interpretations of Marx-interpretations that have developed through repetition rather than through scholarship.

A Must Read

Everyone should read this, especially if they don't care to read the actual works by Marx like "Capitol". In the typical Sowell fashion, this is a thorough examination and critique of Marx.

Incredible book.

Truly great resource. I learned so much about Karl Marx the man, and his philosophy.

Thumbs up

Thorough overview and critique. Highly recommended for a great analysis of Marxism and its limitations

incredible insights

The last few chapters are my absolute favorite. This book is amazing but I think I may need to read (instead of just listen to) the book to get a better grasp and more fully understand everything contained herein.

Highly listenable, dated but still useful

I've listened to this 3x, I still enjoy it. Marx is difficult, this is easy
