Lenin's booklet The State and Revolution struck the world of Marxist theory like a lightning bolt.

Although it was written almost 100 years ago you will read it and often think to yourself "wait a minute... that sounds like what is happening now". Indeed, things haven't changed so much. This book is a must read for anyone interested in Marxism, Leninism, Soviet History, studies of society, capitalism and socialism, political science and so on.
