Materialism and Empirio-Criticism is a book written by Vladimir Lenin, a prominent Marxist theorist and revolutionary leader of the Soviet Union. This book is the thirteenth volume in the Collected Works of V. I. Lenin and was first published in 1909. In this book, Lenin critiques the philosophical theories of empirio-criticism and positivism, which were popular in Europe at the time. He argues that these theories are a form of idealism and do not accurately reflect the material world. Lenin advocates for a materialist approach to understanding the world, which emphasizes the role of objective reality and the laws of nature.Lenin also discusses the relationship between materialism and dialectics, arguing that they are complementary and necessary for understanding the world. He explores the role of consciousness in the material world, arguing that it is a product of material reality rather than the other way around.Overall, Materialism and Empirio-Criticism is a significant work in Marxist philosophy and provides valuable insights into Lenin's views on materialism, dialectics, and the relationship between consciousness and the material world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
