Review :
-Three frequent collaborators have joined again to assemble a thorough and necessarily lengthy anthology of essays about the erstwhile Soviet Union's foreign policy... This volume has become much more appropriate to history courses, but will still have value for students who need to see how scholars struggled to interpret the behavior of the Soviet Union in world affairs.- --D. N. Nelson, Choice "Three frequent collaborators have joined again to assemble a thorough and necessarily lengthy anthology of essays about the erstwhile Soviet Union's foreign policy...
