"It is my ambition to give a coherent view of capitalist society, which omits nothing essential, but is restricted to the fundamental structure and mechanisms. I have taken pains not to betray the Marxist analysis by condensing it, and to avoid a dishonest simplification on the pretext of writing for beginners.... I shall be satisfied, however, if the reader closes the book feeling better equipped for the struggle against a system that must now be overthrown." -- From the introduction.
