| Summary |
"Drawing on his own experience and rich archival material, Mikhail Gorbachev speaks his mind not only on a range of subjects concerning Russia's past, present, and future place in the world but also on the emerging global realities of the twenty-first century. In this book Gorbachev discusses the October Revolution, the Cold War, key figures such as Lenin, Stalin, and Yeltsin, nuclear proliferation, and NATO's bombing of Yugoslavia."--Jacket. |
