Summary From the Back Cover: A nonpolemical examination of the three giants of Marxism-a movement that has spread in only sixty years to encompass one-third of the world, yet is little understood by most Americans. Dr. Gurley, former managing editor of the American Economic Review and vice president of the American Economic Association, provides perhaps the clearest summary of dialectical materialism ever published. In a penetrating analysis, he relates Marx the theoretician, Lenin the revolutionary, and Mao the society builder to each other in terms of the development of Marxian thought and the historical forces stemming from it. At a time when millions of Americans are wondering about the long-term future of world capitalism, Dr. Gurley offers his own thoughtful and provocative predictions
