“Socialism in Marx’s Capital: Towards a Dealienated World appears as a promising and unusual attempt, since it aims to expound on Marx’s ideas on socialism by appealing to his Capital. Chattopadhyay’s primary motivation in the book is deducing the material foundations and features of the socialist society from Capital.” (‪Görkem Giray, Marx and Philosophy, marxandphilosophy.org.uk, May 11, 2022)
