Description: Translated by S.W. Ryazanskaya, and edited by Economist Maurice Dobb, this is only the second translation of Karl Marx' Critique in English, the first being translated in small pressings in 1904 by N.I. Stone. This makes this edition of Marx the first English translation completed by a native Russian speaker. The cultural importance of this translation is hard to put into context without steeping it in the conflict of the Cold War, but the fact that a London based publisher (Lawrence & Wisehart) was willing to publish this edition, which was printed by The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, which is the Soviet Union, or the U.S.S.R. is historical in its own right. Historians, economists, humanists, philosophers, teachers, poets, workers, and parents would be hard-pressed not to care for the mark on history left by Karl Marx, one that still has great weight and importance today. And here is a vintage copy, boasting a clean and crisp dust jacket that would contrast beautifully from other books on the shelf. It has not been annotated, still has the publisher advert inside the pages, and is in great showing, whether it is a reader's copy, held on to for preservation's sake, or just a pretty book of academic standing on to show off on the shelf, this one is an excellent choice.
