Gorbachev: On My Country and the World
Gorbachev, The Thinker
Mikhail Gorbachev changed the world; in the U.S. we'd say for the better while his countryman might say for the worse.
In this book, he expresses big ideas that are often utopian and high brow, and he does so sparing no criticism for the United States leaders and for his Soviet and Russian kin.
In his view, the world as a whole is largely stuck in old historical thinking in conflict with modern realities.
With an honest and non-defensive reading, it is hard to argue with his conclusions and given the current climate here and abroad they are worth thinking about.
But this isn't a page-turner unless you are a devoted political or social scientist.
