"David Harvey is among the most influential Marxist thinkers of the last half century.
This book offers a lucid and authoritative introduction to his work, with a structure
designed to reflect the enduring topics and insights that serve to unify Harvey's
writings over a long period of time. Harvey's writings have exerted huge influence
within the social sciences and the humanities. In addition, his work now commands
something of a global readership among Left political activists and those interested
in current world affairs. Harvey's central preoccupation is capitalism and the impacts
of its growth-obsessed, contradictory dynamics. His name is synonymous with key analytical
concepts like 'the spatial fix' and 'accumulation by dispossession'. This critical
introduction to his thought is an essential companion for both new and more experienced
readers. The critique of capitalism is one of the most important undertakings of our
time, and Harvey's work offers powerful tools to help us see why an anti-capitalist
future is necessary, and why the taming of capitalism is almost certainly insufficient.
An important resource for scholars and graduate students in geography, politics, and
many other disciplines across the social sciences and humanities"
