Book Synopsis
Franck Fischbach suggests that by reading Spinoza and Marx together we may better understand both history and nature, as well as ourselves, making possible a new understanding of human nature. Rather than see history and nature as opposed, history is nothing but the constant transformation of nature.

Trade Review
"Twentieth-century Marxism has often turned to Spinoza to breathe new life into Marx's thought (think of Louis Althusser and Antonio Negri). In a similar vein, Franck Fischbach offers us an astonishing new reading of Marx's 1844 Manuscripts in the light of Spinoza, simultaneously generating an original reading of Spinoza in the light of Marx. At the intersection of these two interpretive movements lies a novel conception of alienation, which, in Fischbach's hands, becomes a sharp theoretical tool for reading the present." -Vittorio Morfino, University of Milan-Bicocca
