This book is a celebration of literature and language as an antidote to the extremes of nihilism and fundamentalism that still threaten us today. Kelly Oliver, philosopher, novelist, and professor emerita, Vanderbilt University
Busting the Bankers’ Club
“Gerald Epstein has done something that has needed doing since 2008 — he has written a book that explains our complex, captured financial system to the lay reader.

No Politics But Class Politics
No Politics but Class Politics gathers together recent essays on inequality from Adolph Reed, Jr. and Walter Benn Michaels, along with a newly commissioned interview with the authors and an illuminating foreword by Daniel Zamora and Anton Jäger. These writings eschew the sloppy thinking and moral posturing that too often characterise discussions of race and class in favour of clear-eyed social, cultural and historical analysis. Reed and Michaels make the case here for a genuinely radical politics: a politics which aspires not to the establishment of a demographically representative social elite, but instead to economic justice for everyone.
