McCarthy
Associate Professor of Geography
Book Title: The Limits to Capital
Author: David Harvey
Selection Statement:
The Limits to Capital is the most important work published in geography in the twentieth century; it is one of the rare books that one can count on scholars working with as a primary source for generations to come. Its synthesis of geographic inquiry with an interpretation, deepening, and extension of Marxist political economy is unmatched. Well over a decade after reading it for the first time, it continues to provide the basic framework of my thinking about how capitalist societies work
