"The narrative delineates with admirable clarity the arcane details
of the current financial crisis, while rehearsing the rise of
capitalism as a historically specific 'process' plagued by
fundamental dilemmas."--Publishers Weekly
"Brisk and persuasive... Looking at the Unites States, it is hard
to see anything as Benign as the New Deal coming out of the present
situation. If it does, it will probably owe a good deal to David
Harvey's students."--The Literary Review
"[T]he recent near-collapse of the global economic system has added
new plausibility to Marxist analysis, and David Harvey is certainly
its most elegant and persuasive spokesperson . . . Harvey's [The
Enigma of Capital] reminds us of the fundamental instability of the
capitalist system, despite its remarkable innovations."--Tikkun
