"This book presents a concentrated and engaging collection of historian Brigitte Studer's research on international communism and its pivotal centre between the wars ... . This book must surely be recommended to anyone interested in the Comintern, and will soon be seen as a standard reference work by both established scholars and future students of international communism and the Comintern."
