With Introduction, Afterword and Notes by Harrison E. Salisbury. Translated from the Russian by the New York Times.In one of the most radical polemics to come out of Russia, the author foresees a world in which East andf West have come together against the messianic threat of China. Writing just before the invasion of Czechoslovakia, he castigates Societ artistic censorship, anti-semmitism, and all aspects of neo-Stalinism in Ruccian life. He compares Stalin directly with Hitler - a comparison no Soviet official had ever made before - and suggest that Stalin's death camps served as prototypes for Hitler's Final Solutionm. But Sakharov's argument for world cooperation is of broader application, and his recognition in the West augers well for its increasing acceptability. 137 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) .
