Revolution, Democracy, Socialism: Selected Writings of V.I. Lenin: 02 (Get Political)

Good book which looks at Lenin's thought. Book offers insight into relevance of Lenin to today. Some critique of Lenin is offered but Rosa Luxembourg is quoted in explaining the severe challenges of launching a socialist revolution in a backward country whilst being attacked by strong imperialist countries. This was a much more refreshing read than the right wing rant which is offered from the book by Robert Service on Lenin. I like the explanatory notes before each section which seek to give context and explanation which I cannot get by just reading Lenin's work directly. Much recommended.
