An interesting book I have been reading, I mean listening to, that may be
of interest to some is below. It is part of the audio book club, but the
full version is available for free through real audio. I, like many I
suppose, find Capital a difficult reading and have found the book a good
explanation of some of Marx's most difficult ideas.

Title: Marxism
Author: Thomas Sowell
Publisher: Blackstone
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=97interpretations that have developed through repetition rather t=
han
through scholarship. The Los Angeles Times writes, "Sowell=85explains so =
well
that a traveler moving across the bumpy Marxian landscape for the first
time can have a safe trip, or a veteran intellectual in need of a refresh=
er
course also can be intrigued." The American Library Association calls the
book, "a compellingly readable expositon of Marx."
