When I first started to talk about the book with Doug, I thought it was going to be too technical for me, but that was exactly the opposite. I really enjoyed the read and had a hard time putting it down. It really held my interest.
John Kretz

“Ready One..Take One” is an easy read, without the technical talk that might have lost me. Doug tells the story of the complex efforts and timing necessary to present programming that we take for granted. The book is interlaced with stories and comments from many sports personalities. It’s an insightful and entertaining story of his career in broadcasting. Hopefully this book will be a great help for the next generation of producers and directors. It’s a must read.

When I first started to read the book, I couldn’t put it down. All the nostalgia in the first chapter blew me away.

Excellent Essay
Format: Paperback
Wolff is a one of the best people I know of to deliver a quick handbook to Marx. He delivers a master class on this complicated subject and I have long respected his views on economics and politics.

Awesome Introduction. A quick, easy read.
Format: Paperback
Very good overview and a quick little read! I was able to read this in a day, despite having ADHD. That, in my opinion, is a testament to the engaging, straight-forward writing style. I now feel well-versed enough in thd basics to read more in-depth texts. Highly recommended.

Brief and informative
I recommend this book to anyone that is curious about what exactly Marxism or socialism is but does not care to read volumes of material from Karl Marx himself. It's a quick yet poignant look at the major points and positions of the philosopher Karl Marx and gives you reason to go further study of you desire. This book will leave the average person with enough knowledge to hold an intelligent conversation about what Marxism is. Can be read on a commute to and from work or a 2hr plane ride.

The only system to replace capitalism m
Format: Paperback
Professor Wolff has written Marxism in an easy to understand, simplified pamphlet. I have listened to many of his podcasts and he speaks very clearly and deliberately so his audience can easily understand. Highly recommended reading for all Americans.

An excellent introduction
Dr. Richard Wolff has a gift for simplifying complex material, distilling it down to its essence, and delivering it in a winsome manner. His gifts are on display here, for Karl Marx is a hard read. And yet, after reading this introduction, it is possible to catch a glimpse of hitherto unseen trains of Kark Marx's thought. After reading this introduction, it is clear that Marxism is not the same thing as Communism, or Socialism, or Fascism. Marxism is nothing more than an analysis and critique of Capitalism. That analysis and critique is used by many for their own purposes, purposes that have only a tenuous relationship to the source material.
