Marx, the Body, and Human Nature shows that the body and the broader material world played a far more significant role in Marx’s theory than previously recognised. It provides a fresh ‘take’ on Marx’s theory, revealing a much more open, dynamic and unstable conception of the body, the self, and human nature.
