This thought-provoking study argues that Marx's study of Charles Darwin led him to develop a distinctively Marxian concept of natural history that provides crucial direction for promoting an eco-socialist alternative to capitalism. An incisive work that is likely to spur lively discussion and debate. -- Peter Hudis, author of <i>Franta Fanon: Philosopher of Barricades</i> The End puts us in the middle of a fascinating conversation between Marx and Darwin that most of us hardly knew was going on. Joel Wainwright elaborates a creative and fertile relationship that reveals a fuller, natural-historical Marx--an engagement that shines a surprising, insightful and powerful new light on the present. -- Geoff Mann, co-author of <i>Climate Leviathan</i>
