This biography gives us an illuminating portrait of "a man engaged in a strange kind of struggle, in its own way highly personal, whose consequences could scarcely have been foreseen." In tracing the development of Marx's ideas, Mr. Carmichael shows how they were related to that personal struggle, and how varying interpretations of them have come to govern the lives of a third of mankind.
