Alexei B. Kojevnikov Stalin's Great Science: The Times and Adventures of Soviet 
Physicists"
Imperial College Press | 2004-06 | ISBN: 1860944191 | 360 pages.
-----
World-class science and technology developed in the Soviet Union during 
Stalin's dictatorial rule under conditions of political violence, lack of 
international contacts, and severe restrictions on the freedom of information. 
Stalin's Great Science: The Times and Adventures of Soviet Physicists is an 
invaluable book that investigates this paradoxical success by following the 
lives and work of Soviet scientists - including Nobel Prize-winning physicists 
Kapitza, Landau, and others - throughout the turmoil of wars, revolutions, and 
repression that characterized the first half of Russia's twentieth century. The 
book examines how scientists operated within the Soviet political order, 
communicated with Stalinist politicians, built a new system of research 
institutions, and conducted groundbreaking research under extraordinary 
circumstances. Some of their novel scientific ideas and theories reflected the 
influence of Soviet ideology and worldview and have since become accepted 
universally as fundamental concepts of contemporary science. In the process of 
making sense of the achievements of Soviet science, the book dismantles 
standard assumptions about the interaction between science, politics, and 
ideology, as well as many dominant stereotypes - mostly inherited from the Cold 
War - about Soviet history in general. Science and technology were not only 
granted unprecedented importance in Soviet society, but they also exerted a 
crucial formative influence on the Soviet political system itself. Unlike most 
previous studies, Stalin's Great Science recognizes the status of science as an 
essential element of the Soviet polity and explores the nature of a special 
relationship between experts (scientists and engineers) and communist 
politicians that enabled the initial rise of the Soviet state and its mature 
accomplishments, until the pact eroded in later years, undermining the 
communist regime from within.
