Anti-Dühring

Anti-Dühring  (1878)  by Friedrich Engels

Anti-Dühring, published in 1878, was Friedrich Engel's major contribution to the exposition and development of Marxist theory. Formerly known by the ironic title, Herr Eugen Dühring's Revolution in Science, the modern title recalls Julius Caesar's polemic Anti-Cato.— Excerpted from Anti-Dühring on Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
