    The books Marx wrote are the evidence. If you read them then you’d see why they are obviously relevant today. Of course, reading and understanding serious literature takes more effort than trolling on public forums.

      Are there any modern books which talk about the same/similar contents which are easier/smaller for a beginner to start?
