About this title

Synopsis

This third and final volume of Maurice Conforth's acclaimed introduction to dialectical materialism outlines the Marxist approach to some of the fundamental questions of philosophy. Using the clear, direct language which has made these books so popular, Cornforth explores the essential philosophical problems of the relationship of mind and matter, of language and thought, of ideas and reality and of necessity and freedom. With simple, easily grasped examples, the author shows what it is that distinguishes Marxist from other philosophical approaches to these questions, and makes clear the great value of a materialist and rational viewpoint.
