Soviet Science

Abstract

MR. CROWTHER is well qualified for the task he has undertaken. He has already published two books on historical aspects of science, and he has a wide knowledge of Russian scientific institutions. Further, he is very friendly disposed to the Soviet system, presenting everything in the most favourable light, yet never distorting facts or indulging in propaganda. He gives in this book the most complete account yet issued in English of the present position in the different branches of science in Russia.
