The book critically examines the controversies surrounding Norman Geras, a significant modern political thinker, tracing his evolution from Trotskyism to his analyses of Marx's theories on human nature and justice. It highlights his engagement with liberalism, critiques of postmodernism, and discussions on human rights and humanitarian intervention, particularly his defense of the 2003 Iraq invasion. Cowling offers a blend of exposition, admiration, and critique, making it a valuable resource for those interested in Geras, Marxism, and social and political theory.
