Marx sent Charles Darwin a copy of Capital volume one, but Darwin only read a fraction of it, and their correspondence ended with a brief thank-you note.
What if the book caught Darwin's attention. He and Marx enter into a lively, years-long correspondence, which affects Darwin deeply. When the English translation of Capital is finally published posthumously by Engels in 1887, it contains a brief preface by Darwin. He praises Marxism as 'the beginning of a new science', and 'an historical equivalent to the study of biological evolution'.
How does this effect everything.
