Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Richard Wolff’s book is the best accessible and reliable treatment we have of what socialism is, was, and should be.” —Cornel West, New York Times bestselling author
“Lucid, brilliant, and uncompromising in his dissection of the capitalist system, he also provides a sane and just socialist alternative to capitalist exploitation, one we must all fight to achieve.” —Chris Hedges, New York Times bestselling author
“In the same accessible style that has made his programs and lectures such a hit, he explains his subject in a way that’s not only smart but makes the rest of us feel smart. It’s actionable intelligence for the every person.” —Laura Flanders, broadcast journalist
