Recenzii

 “By far the most informed and comprehensive book ever published in the West on the position and treatment of the mentally and physically disabled in the Soviet Union.”
—Soviet Studies

“The world of the disabled in any society is something most of us know far too little about. . . . All the more reason to welcome this scholarly introduction to the problem of the disabled in Russia and the Soviet Union. . . .[I]ts thoughtful contributions illustrate how important a study of the perceptions and treatment of the disabled can be in assessing the culture of a whole society.”
—The Russian Review
