It would take a scholar with a formidable intellect to be able to significantly refine the work
of Kôzô Uno the brilliant Japanese economist who had advanced the most sophisticated and
convincing reconstruction of Marx's unfinished masterpiece Capital to have hitherto been
attempted. This impressive essay collection drawing from Thomas Sekine's work from the 1970s
down to the present day and covering much of the full gamut of Sekine's wide ranging
intellectual interests includes discussions of the correspondence of Hegel's dialectic and the
dialectic of capital the dialectic as the basis for social science the defense of value
theory the proper solutions to both the dialectical and mathematical transformation problems
and the ex-capitalist transition. This is required reading for any serious heterodox economist
whether Marxian or otherwise. John R. Bell (formerly Professor Seneca College)
