Customer Reviews

Intensely interesting and informative!!

A definite must for anyone interested in the field of revolutionary movements/political science. The book provides succinct yet fact-packed discussions on the origins and aftermaths of some of the most predominant revolutions of the 20th Century including Russia, China, Iran, and Cuba as well as several others. As a former student of Dr. Defronzo at UCONN I have found the book invaluable in my studies of History and Political Science.

Defronzo prevails again...

Defronzo has an uncanny knack of explaining the complexities of various revolutionary social movements on a very readable level. I highly recommend taking his course at Connecticut, if possible. However, this book is a must for understanding the contemporary political climate of the world.
