Reviews'Deepankar Basu has written a much-needed new book in Marxist economics. Building upon the work of many Marxist analysts over the long period since Marx wrote his masterwork Capital, as well as Basu's own insightful analyses, the book offers a clearly written guide to the Marxist interpretation of capitalism. He covers the theory of historical evolution, the central relation of capitalism through which capital exploits labour by appropriating part of what labour produces, growth and crisis under capitalism, and the roles of merchants, financiers and landowners in capitalist society. The book introduces the reader to important recent developments in Marxist analysis such as the role of unpaid domestic labour in capitalism, the relation between capitalist exploitation and other forms of oppression, the transformation of capitalism in the neoliberal era since around 1980 and the increased part played by financial institutions in contemporary capitalism.' David Kotz, University of Massachusetts Amherst, author of The Rise and Fall of Neoliberal Capitalismf The Rise and Fall of Neoliberal Capitalismf The Rise and Fall of Neoliberal Capitalismf The Rise and Fall of Neoliberal Capitalism, 'This brilliant book is a worthy successor to Paul Sweezy's classic, The Theory of Capitalist Development. Like Sweezy before him, Basu achieves that rare feat of providing both an introduction to Marxist political economy and also a response to some of the most sophisticated recent critiques of value theory. The book will be an indispensable resource for students coming fresh to Marxist economics as well as those looking to wade into the more advanced debates. It is a bravura performance.' Vivek Chibber, New York University, author of Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital

Scholars of economics, sociology, geography, political science, anthropology, and other kindred disciplines, will find here an accessible yet rigorous treatment of Marxist political economy., The book presents the main economic argument developed by Marx in the three volumes of Capital in a coherent and comprehensive manner. It will appeal to readers who are interested in critical social sciences, economics, sociology, political science, anthropology in general and Marxism in particular.
