"Plaut and Anderson's book represents a significant contribution to
and expansion of sociologists' understanding of Marx's support for
women's liberation. . . . Marx's views regarding women's oppression
in the bourgeois family are made poignantly clear." --Social
Pathology
"This essay, expertly retranslated and intelligently introduced,
confirms how far Marx's interests ranged beyond the problems of the
proletariat and sheds new light on the young Marx--not the least on
the self-aggressiveness of his own emotional life." --Louis Dupré,
Yale University
"This unknown fragment of early Marx provides occasion for three
engaging contributions: an introduction to Peuchet's pioneering
text on suicide; provocative glosses on issues of
self-destructiveness in Marx's biography; and a knowing recovery of
Marx's views on gender and the family. Fascinating." --Donald N.
Levine, University of Chicago
