Michael Perelman says that the first edition of Chapter 1 was published some
years ago in Capital and Class.
Actually, while my last attempt at giving references was not altogether
correct (!), Michael is not right on this one. What was published in C&C 4,
Spring 1978 was the Appendix to the first edition, called 'The Value-Form'.
The original is in the new MEGA (part II, vol. 5), but it is not in the 50
vol. English edition of the Marx-Engels Collected Works. That's why I
reprinted it in the book I edited for Macmillan which came out last year.
