Can anyone recommend an edition that is a faithful translation of Das Kapital, preferably with informative commentary notes?

Isn't that the chap who features in that RSAnimate vid that was posted here of late? He's good. The point he makes about Capitalism inevitably having periodic "Crises" each of which result in a massive redistribution of debt, is particularly interesting.

Or as "The Year-Long Lunch Break" wrote ages ago "Someone, somewhere, will always go bust. It could be you". I wonder if I've been a Marxista all these years and not known it?

That's a coincidence, I've just had David Harvey's new book, The Enigma of Capital: And the Crises of Capitalism recommended to me...
