I stand corrected concerning the electrostencilling of Hook's book. But I think my point still stands concerning Hook's attitudes to *Towards an Understanding of Karl Marx.* On the one hand he repudiated that book's political stance and took measures to suppress it while on the other hand
he couldn't resist taking pride in its authorship and its effect on readers.
