The True Meaning of Dialectics

It is a duty for leading cadres to study Marxist classics, but it is also a difficult task. After busy work, faced with numerous classic texts, leading cadres at all levels face two basic questions: What to read and how to read? What to read means carefully selecting those texts that can help leading cadres understand, analyze, and solve major theoretical and practical problems in contemporary China; how to read means to find the connection point between these texts and the reality of contemporary China, so as to achieve the goal of improving the theoretical literacy of leading cadres. In view of this, this series of books is based on the confusion of major theoretical and practical issues that leading cadres encounter in the current construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics. It selects ten documents from Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Mao Zedong. It does not seek to comprehensively review, but only seeks to interpret the essence. It strives to write big ideas and emphasize thoughts in small and beautiful language, ensuring that this series of books truly becomes a classic book that leading cadres love to read, can read, and are easy to read. Classification of classic works by five major themes, adhering to a realistic problem orientation, shaping the writing style of short essays, fresh and pleasing binding design, and humorous hand-drawn cartoons are all the advantages of this series over similar series. This series of books has been included in the teaching materials and supplementary books for the "Read Classic Works Like This" course of the Party School of the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China. This book is one of the Classic Reading series. The author discusses Marx's "Preface" in concise, popular and highly readable language, and is accompanied by ten exquisite hand-drawn cartoons. The whole book is about 40,000 words.
