Louis Proyect:

I suggest George Novack's "Introduction to the Logic of Marxism". George, 
god rest his soul, was the house philosopher in the erstwhile Trotskyist 
SWP. It is 144 pages long and written for a working-class audience. 
As a matter of fact, just about everything George wrote is worth reading. 
He has books out on materialism, empiricism, existentialism, American 
history and other topics. His titles will never show up on the reading 
list of a Yale graduate school seminar, but he's still worth checking out.
