    I suspect they ordered it because they thought someone might purchase it. You can buy the Manifesto in most decent-sized corporate bookstores ime.

      While I agree, I usually only see these types of books available for online purchase and rarely in stores. I’ve seen Marx in a Barnes and Noble but rarely Lenin.

      Ordering is done entirely by algorithm. They see an uptick in a specific category, so they then purchase similar books.

      And I’m sure the publisher has been pushing his work because he passed away recently, and dead author means coverage and coverage means sales.

      Amazon keeps telling me to read more theory.
