A good book

Needed the book for grad school. It was in good shape and easy to navigate.

Essential reading for Marxist theorists

Baudrillard's book Mirror of Production reworks neo-Marxist theory and expands/critiques various concepts of such thinkers as Kristeva, Althusser, and makes a strong case outlining numerous misreadings of Marx, as well as providing a useful deconstruction of Marx's concept of use-value. An essential text for Marxist theory in the twenty-first century.

An Interesting book

An interesting book, that provides a new perspective on our western idea of "progress" and how this myth is constructed and maintained around the world
