Reviews

This book appears at a time when the bloody struggle between capitalism and socialism unexpectedly seems to have ended, and now we must wonder why capitalism triumphed and where it is leading us. . . . The result according to Grassby, is an idea that retains symbolic importance.--Richard F. Teichgraeber
