MARXISM AND FREEDOM, from 1776 until Today, by Raya Dunayevskaya

"Where Western Marxists tended to become mandarins, and to retreat into the academy, Dunayevskaya and her group valorized ordinary workers and gathered in all of the oppressed and dispossessed as agents of absolute negativity... There is a magnificence about Raya Dunayevskaya's thought, well illustrated in this, her path-breaking volume, which provides a real ground for that hope. It is a ground that remains to be built upon." -From new Humanity Books foreword by Joel Kovel

"Raya Dunayevskaya's book... shows not only that economics and politics are throughout philosophy, but that the latter is from the beginning economics and politics" -Herbert Marcuse, from the Preface

"Marxism and Freedom provides what I still consider on of the best introductions to Marxist thought and one of the most illuminating interpretations of the work and contribution of Karl Marx." -Douglas Kellner, University of Texas

"I always considered Dunayevskaya one of the giants of Marx scholarship." -Bertell Ollman, New York University
