reviewed Modern Nature: The Rise of the Biological Perspective in Germany on January 16, 2018
Modern Nature
Not having read anything about Socialism, Marxism or Western feminism before, I picked up the book and was actually quite impressed. However I couldn't go past after half the book was finished because at times the language gets really technical and you will have to be acquainted with some previous philosophies at first. Overall: good one for prospective undergrads who want to try out Socialism courses.
