Dear Riccardo, I do not have the copy of Capital with me. Therefore, I am relying on my memory. I think it is in the preface to the first German edition. If not there, then, it is in the afterword to the second German edition.

I mean, was he talking of the first (where he provided the appendix) or of the second edition? rb At 6:27 -0400 20-06-2007, Dogan Goecmen wrote: Marx suggests skiping the first chapter, too, if it is difficult to understand. But he does not say we can put it aside. I think it is the key chapter to understand Capital. Dogan -----Ursprüngliche Mitteilung----- Von: ajit sinha An: OPE-L@SUS.CSUCHICO.EDU Verschickt: Mi., 20.

In his 'Preface to CAPITAL Volume One', Louis Althusser wrote: "put the whole of part one aside ... and begin your reading with part two: 'The Transformation of Money into Capital." On this also see mine: 'A Critique of Part One of CAPITAL Volume One: The Value Controversy Revisited', RESEARCH IN POLITICAL ECONOMY vol. 15, pp. 195-222.
