| Summary: | Geoffrey Hosking, one of the world's preeminent scholars of Russian history, provides a unique perspective on the rapid changes the country experienced in the late 1980s. Other books have focused on the political changes that took place under Gorbachev; Hosking's lively analysis illuminates the social, cultural, and historical developments that created the need--and openness--for sweeping political and economic change. |
