Worth reading for those with an interest in the history of philosophy (particularly German idealism and communism), and also to gain some context on some oft-quoted philosophical aphorisms, most notably the last thesis of the "theses on Feuerbach": "Philosophers have hitherto only interpreted the world in various ways; the point is to change it."

Beyond that, Part 1 is interesting though generally lacking in argumentative rigour, and I found the selections from parts 2 and 3 to be too disjointed to be worth reading in their entirety. ( )
