(And about 50 references to Facebook.) Those Cliff anedotes really function like the hadith in the Islamic tradition; backing up an argument with an example from the life of the Prophet.<br /><br />"There is also a now famous story of Cliff, when being approached by older members..." (p 20)<br /><br />"Tony Cliff was fond of making serious political points in two widely contrasting styles..." (p 31)<br /><br />"Cliff’s approach to such matters was that when faced with a choice, the important thing was to choose...." (p 58)<br /><br />"I could not help but recall that Cliff was fond of quoting Lenin’s dictum from “Left Wing Communism – An Infantile Disorder”... " (p 71)<br /><br />Etc.
