Perestroika New Thinking for Our Country and the World by Mikhail Gorbachev William Collins Sons & Co., 1987 [First Edition], ISBN 0002156601, hardcover, dust-jacket Very Good Cond ition, minor edge and shelf wear, minor rubbing to edges and corners, no inscriptions (see photographs) "perestroika, which means 'reconstructing', is Mikhail Gorbachev's own account of the revolution he is presently implementing in the USSR. Seventy years after the October Revolution, it constitutes a revolution in attitudes, in ideas and in practice that entails a radical alteration of both domestic and foreign policy. Perestroika is the next stage in socialist history, when greater responsibility, initiative, openness and a spirit of 'emulation' are to be strongly encouraged in the people through a real sense of personal involvement. It is an unprecedented blueprint for change that can only have profound implications for the world." Show more
