"The Manifesto is one of history's most profound prophecies. In Miéeacute;ville's brilliant interpretation it is like a great comet whose periodic return blinds the sky with its light and urgency. Read this and be dazzled by its contemporaneity."
-Mike Davis

"An excellent book, very lively and engaging, written in clear and readable prose... much more than a contextual and analytical reading of the Manifesto... For today's readers, Miéville does excellent work presenting and reviewing a huge amount of twentieth-century history"
--Professor Terrell Carver

"Very enjoyable and well done... properly scholarly and thorough in its apparatus of discussion and issue identification...lively, politically-driven appreciation"
--Professor Gregor McLennan
