Bertell Ollman has been hailed as "this country's leading authority on dialectics and Marx's method" by Paul Sweezy, the editor of Monthly Review and dean of America's Marx scholars.

The memoir of an influential Marxist scholar, professor and game inventor turned business man, BALL BUSTER? is a business adventure story, with enough ups, downs, victories, defeats and suspense to fill a Hitchcock film.
