A book of such monumental scope will arouse controversies among Marxologists, but this book is an intellectual tour de force, rarely equaled in studies of Marxism.--R.J. Mitchell, University of New Orleans\u003cbr\u003e\"This book is a product of mature scholarship which serves to confirm anew Walicki's skill as an intellectual historian and his gift for the felicitous expression of his ideas. It is to be recommended to anyone seeking to go beyond a basic introduction to Marxist thought, and it may offer fresh insight to those already familiar with the sources reviewed by Walicki.\"--The Russian Review\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAndrzej Walicki is O'Neill Professor of History at the University of Notre Dame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 656\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.46 x 9.03 x 6.05 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 01, 1997\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47509826732253,"sku":"9780804731645","price":68.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/5J7BMDgn-89780804731645.webp?v=1781559966","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/marxism-and-the-leap-to-the-kingdom-of-freedom-the-rise-and-fall-of-the-communist-utopia-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
