human mind of the mysticism that is usually attached to it, and shows
the functioning of the brain as a perfectly natural process. Just as
Karl Marx and Frederick Engels traced history and economics along
evolutionary lines, to the logical conclusion that a new social order
is inevitable, so Josef Dietzgen traced the evolution of human thought,
as expressed through philosophy, to its positive outcome. He shows
that the natural sciences have taken over every branch of the old-time
philosophy, leaving only the thinking process itself to be explained.
This latter he accomplishes in a masterly fashion in his chapter on
“The Nature of Human Brain-Work.”
The Centenary Edition of THE POSITIVE OUTCOME OF PHILOSOPHY is
handsomely bound in maroon cloth with gold stamping and contains a
portrait of its famous author. Price $2.00, postage paid.

ANTI-DÜHRING
_Herr Eugene Dühring’s_
_Revolution in Science_
By Frederick Engels
_Also contains “The Mark” and the author’s introduction
to “Socialism, Utopian and Scientific”_
Part I treats with Philosophy, giving the most comprehensive statement
of Marx and Engels with regard to this question than anywhere else
in their published writings. Part II is, in effect, an outline and
introduction to the three volumes of _Capital_, along with interesting
data on the force theory and warfare and militarism. Part III explains
the basis of modern socialism in its entire range of program, strategy
and tactics.
_Anti-Dühring_ is the only work compressing into one volume the Marxian
world-outlook in its relation to the various fields of knowledge and
science and the society of the future. Engels says of this work: “I had
to treat of all and every possible subject, from the concepts of time
and space to bimetallism; from the eternity of matter and motion to
the perishable nature of moral ideas; from Darwin’s natural selection
to the education of youth in a future society. Anyhow, the systematic
comprehensiveness of my opponent gave me the opportunity of developing,
in opposition to him, and in a more connected form than had previously
been done, the views held by Marx and myself on this great variety of
subjects. And that was the principal reason which made me undertake
this otherwise ungrateful task.”
