Philip J. Kain is professor of philosophy at Santa Clara University and the author of Marx and Ethics (Clarendon Press, 1988).

This book is scholarly, readable, and frequently insightful. It contributes not only to the understanding of modern political philosophy, but to contemporary theorizing as well. It should be of interest to students of modern political philosophy generally, but of special interest to those who are engaged in rethinking the foundations of the socialist project—and wondering about Marx's relevance to that project.
