Fiction or Non-Fiction, academic or casual, theory or non-theory, feel free to mention books of any genre and on any topic.
Started reading Adoratsky's Dialectical Materialism now that it has been added to Comrade's Library. So far so good! It's a candidate for Rev 3 of my intro ML reading list, which will trim some sections and add a few more, as well as clean up the reading order.
Thanks for the recommendation! Added to my list:

How does it compare to other books on dialectical materialism?
So far it's extremely clear, though I'm just starting it. My main purpose is in considering replacing Politzer's work on my reading list, I don't want repitition on my reading list (otherwise I would just list everything).
I may then read it then before going through Losurdo's Hegel (or dip in and out of both as I go)
Seems pretty short, so you could probably dip through it quickly before Losurdo.
Yeah, it's a great introductory text for DiaMat study.
Agreed!
