Abstract
ENGLISH readers often find it difficult to obtain trustworthy information about the U.S.S.R. They suspect anything that looks like propaganda and much prefer a cold and clear-cut account that aims only at presenting the facts without bias one way or the other. For this reason much that has been written has lacked permanent value, and has probably had far less influence than its authors had hoped. On the other hand, the official statistics, which are good, are not easily accessible to the ordinary reader.
The U.S.S.R.
An Economic and Social Survey. By Dr. S. P. Turin. Pp. xiii + 220. (London: Methuen and Co., Ltd., 1944.) 16s. net.
