| Very clear and concise summaries of two very important thinkers. For anyone who wants to understand Leo Strauss's philosophy and the rationale / motivation for it, this is an excellent place to start. I think most people (including myself) will be a ...more | |

| Prior to Kotkin's three volume work (not yet completed) most folks would likely cite to Simon de Montifiore's biography of Stalin (In the Court of the Red Tsar) as the preeminent Stalin biography. One thing that makes Montifiore's book a bit of a pag ...more | |
