The Socialist Tradition: Moses to Lenin – Alexander Gray

Description

An excellent and witty survey of the development of social thought from its beginnings down to 1945. Gray is critical of socialism and includes his critiques of various writers at every stage of the work, although he also does a good job of first presenting the arguments of the various schools and writers included in his book and not infrequently allows them to speak for themselves. Recommended for anyone curious about the roots of many of the ideas and concepts that dominate political discussions down to the present day.
