Are they worth reading, and does anyone know where I can get them from cheap in London?

I would definitely recommend both of them, but i'm not sure where you would buy them. I'm not in the UK.

I have the same problem actually, but unfortunately I don't have any leftist literature in book form yet. :(

Oh well. I will eventually. When I move out i'm probably going to form my own branch of IMT.

Trotsky wrote it. Therefore by default it must be good. :lol:

They're both pretty good.

I'm guessing you can find both most cheaply through www.abebooks.com (http://www.abebooks.com)

I agree with The state and the revolution, the second work is an attack on the soviet union.

It is actually a critique on Stalinism, the biggest threat to the Soviet Union. History has vindicated the analysis brought forward in the book completely. I do recommend it.

As for cheap stores I recommend http://socialistbooks.co.uk
