A New Notion: Two Works by C.L.R. James: "Every Cook Can Govern" and "The Invading Socialist Society" - Softcover
Synopsis
C.L.R. James was a leading figure in the independence movement in the West Indies and the black and working-class movements in both Britain and the US. As a major contributor to Marxist and revolutionary theory, his project was to discover, document and elaborate the aspects of working-class activity that constitute the revolution in today's world. In this essential volume in the study of James' work, Noel Ignatiev provides an extensive introduction to James' life and thought, before presenting two critical works which illustrate the breadth and depth of his work

Review
"It would take a person with great confidence and good judgment to select from the substantial writings of C. L. R. James just two items to represent the 'principle themes' in James' life and thoughts. Fortunately Noel Ignatiev is such a person . . . A concise but thorough introduction." John H. Bracey Jr., professor of African-American studies, University of MassachusettsAmherst"
"C. L. R. James has arguably had a greater influence on the underlying thinking of independence movements in the West Indies and Africa than any living man." "Sunday Times""
"It remains remarkable how far ahead of his time [C. L. R. James] was on so many issues." "New Society""
"It is crucial that these texts, so long circulated on the Left in pamphlet form, be made available to new generations of readers and activists. PM Press and Noel Ignatiev . . . are to be thanked for this." "XCP: Cross Cultural Poetics no. 23""
