CAPITAL: A Critique of Political Economy, Volume 1

Described by Friedrich Engels as "the bible of the working class," Marx's 1867 classic of political economics remains a work of tremendous importance and influence. Thirty years in the making, Capital: Volume One was the first installment of Marx's three-part Das Kapital. In addition to its critique of the concept of private property, the treatise analyzes the scientific laws of capitalism and their structural contradictions.
