"David Harvey unites the impossible: a broad global theoretical approach to capitalism with detailed economic analyses. As every good dialectician, he knows how to recognize a general tendency in what appears as marginal accidents of economic daily life. His knowledge goes well beyond the generalities of commodity fetishism and capitalist exploitation of nature. Although often critical of Marx, he uses Marx to explain problems we are experiencing today, from 2008 meltdown to the return of rents and the implications of Trump's playing with tariffs. His book is for everyone who wants to really understand the mess we are in, which means - it is for everyone." --Slavoj Zizek "This terrific volume brings together several decades of Harvey's original investigations of Marx's work, and deploys them to illuminate many of our contemporary economic and social problems. One of his special talents is to analyze complex arguments in precise detail using clear and accessible language. A remarkable achievement.
" --Michael Hardt, author of The Subversive Seventies.
