Editorial Reviews

These twelves essays examining the impact of Gorbachev on the Soviet Union are important and comprehensive. One failing is that they are not very timely. Events have taken us past much of the speculation in the assorted articles. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
