Summary:

"Geographer and social theorist David Harvey offers a comprehensive critique of contemporary capitalism. In this book, he shows the way forward for just such an understanding, enlarging upon the key themes in his recent work: the development of neo-liberalism, the spread of inequalities across the globe, and 'space' as a key theoretical concept. Both a declaration of a new research programme and a concise introduction to David Harvey's central concerns, this book will be essential reading for scholars and students across the humanities and social sciences."--Jacket.
