The forces that shape our history are always contentious. Seen through the popularity of books from Jared Diamond to Eric Hobsbawm, people's fascination with what drives the actions of the human race is indefatigable. In Work, Sex and Power, Willie Thompson draws on decades of experience as a historian in order to re-establish a materialist narrative of the entire span of human history, drawing on a vast range of contemporary research. The author's final work, this book seeks to reach a much wider audience than his previous, more academic books. Highly readable and purged of any jargon, this volume will be taken up by an audience who are coming to Marxism for the first time. It attempts to discuss and explain the foundations of social structures and themes that have recurred throughout the phases of global history in the interaction between humans and their environment. From communities of Palaeolithic hunter-gatherers to the machine-civilisation of recent centuries, Thompson takes us on a journey in an accessible and popular fashion the latest thinking in regard to long-term historical development.
