Review:
Not Marx or Nietzsche, but Marx and Nietzsche. Not easily and, obviously, not for everything but for enough to make McCarthy's new book one of the most provocative and original studies of both of these giants that I've seen in a very long time. And it's not giving away a secret to say that once again the 'miracle maker' turns out to be-Aristotle. -- Bertrell Ollman, New York University This is a valuable book. McCarthy does a thorough, well researched, and very impressive job of showing the influence of Aristotle on Marx and of ancient thought on both Marx and Nietzsche. -- Philip J. Kain, Santa Clara University Dialectics and Decadence is a learned study of antiquity's afterlife in modern social criticism. Political Studies Review Illuminating and well argued, this book is recommended for all collections in the history of philosophy and in social and political philosophy. CHOICE
