What it is about
The Preconditions of Socialism (1899): the book that split Marxism in two.
Context and history
Bernstein had been Engels's executor, and here he says Marx's predictions have not come true: capitalism is not collapsing, the middle class is growing and workers live better. Conclusion: reform, do not wait for revolution. Every European social democracy descends from this. English translation; the German is not in the catalogue.
Editorial context, not a citable source: unlike the passages of the work itself, these statements cannot be checked against the corpus.
