1: Ms Nasar’s story is made all the more appealing by the fact that she does almost nothing to conceal her prejudices. 2: She has little time for Karl Marx, a man who was so convinced of his rightness, and so buried in his books in the British Library, that he failed to observe the world around him. [...]113: He did not bother to visit a single British factory. He refused to exchange a word with the intellectual titans of the time, including Charles Darwin and George Eliot, both of whom lived just a few miles from his front door. 4: He ignored overwhelming statistical evidence that the working class’s share of the nation’s wealth was increasing. 5: By contrast, Alfred Marshall was everything that Marx was not: the embodiment of all that was best in Victorian high- mindedness. Marshall was alive to what was going on around him. He frequently visited factories and firms, and travelled around the world’s new “empire of energy”, the United States. 6: He threw his weight behind popular education and incremental reform.

1:娜萨女士从不费心遮掩自己的偏见，这让她的故事更有可读性。2:书中关于卡尔·马克思的篇幅甚短。马克思对自己的公正颇有信心，但他总在大英国书馆埋头读书，没有时间去好好观察身边的世界。[...]113:他连一家英国工厂都没去参观过，也拒绝和当时思想大家交流。查尔斯·达尔文和乔治·艾略特离他住地几英里外，他们却从未讲过话。4:势不可挡的统计数据，足以表明工人阶级占有国家财富的份额在增长，他对此视而不见。5:阿尔弗雷德·马歇尔与马克思截然相反，他是维多利亚时期优秀品质的化身，关心身边世界，经常访问工厂企业，环游世界新的“活力帝国”——美国。6:他全心全力支持大众教育和逐渐改革。
