I think Shane Mage is right on this. Marx and Engels influenced each other a
lot. When Engels published his outline of a critique of political economy
(1843), and his book on the condition of the workingclass in England (1845),
Marx knew very well that Engels was much ahead of himself. It was Engels who
wrote most of the crucial first part of The German Ideology (1846). It took
Marx until 1859 to publish his Contribution to the Critique of Political
Economy, which in fact flopped and did not sell well.
Michael Heinrich’s Marx is an emaciated scholastic ripped out of context, a
puppet on a string who dances according to Heinrich’s borrowed tunes.
