Written during the winter of 1857-8, the Grundrisse was considered by Marx to be the first scientific elaboration of communist theory. A collection of seven notebooks on capital and money, it both develops the arguments outlined in the Communist Manifesto (1848) and explores the themes and theses that were to dominate his great later work Capital. Here, for the first time, Marx set out his own version of Hegel's dialectics and developed his mature views on labour, surplus value and profit, offering many fresh insights into alienation, automation and the dangers of capitalist society. Yet while the theories in Grundrisse make it a vital precursor to Capital, it also provides invaluable descriptions of Marx's wider-ranging philosophy, making it a unique insight into his beliefs and hopes for the foundation of a communist state.

Karl Marx (1818-1883) was a German philosopher,

economist and sociologist. One of the most influential

men in history, he was a true prophet of the proletariat

who not only gave them the guiding philosophy for their

struggle against the bourgeoisie but also worked hand in

hand with them to realize their dream. His Das Capital

has been the undercurrent of all revolutionary movements

in modern times.

Friedrich Engels (1820-1895) was another great German philosopher and social scientist. He was a close aide of Marx and co-authored Communist Manifesto with him. He also edited second and third volumes of Das Capital after Marx s death
