"Readers...will find a great deal of information on the real state
of affairs in the Russian economy and the results of "shock
therapy"; on the transformations post-Soviet society has undergone;
and on the government and the opposition.... "Revolution from Above
will be as valuable for Western radicals as for Russians and
students of Russian history."
-"In These Times
..."one of the best books yet to appear about what has happened in
the former Soviet Union in this last tragic decade.... It is a good
book because it is based on a careful, scholarly analysis of a
laboriously collected treasury of facts.... This book is an
eye-opener for anyone who is tired of the prevailing wisdom about
today's Russia."
-"Monthly Review
"The account is distinguished from many others by its critical
perspective, which is to be welcomed...."
-Simon Clarke, University of Warwick, "Contemporary Sociology
