“There are different ways to write a survey of Russian history, and most of them have been tried many times. Yet Simon Dixon, the editor of this excellent three-volume series, has invited his authors to do something new.” (Slavonic and East European Review, 1 April 2012)"On the whole, there are many positives in this work. The thematic approach makes it clear that certain characteristics were present in both tsarist and Soviet times, and that significant continuities were evident within the political and social aspects of revolutionary Russia." (Revolutionary Russia, 2 December 2011)"Ted Weeks's book is an excellent and well-judged account of this crucial period. He presents the history of Russia and the Soviet Union in a way that will challenge students and make them think hard." (The Russian Review, 1 July 2011) "Recommended. Most levels/libraries." (Choice, 1 May 2011)
