This book reclaims Marx's Capital from the myth of inconsistency. An accessible account written for non-specialist readers, it shows that the inconsistencies are actually caused by misinterpretation; the recent 'temporal single-system interpretation' eliminates all of the alleged inconsistencies.
Andrew Kliman is Professor of Economics at Pace University, New York. He is the author of Reclaiming Marx's 'Capital' (Lexington, 2006 ) and The Failure of Capitalist Production (Pluto, 2011).
