The history of perestroika by the last president of the USSR.
This weekend i have been reading the book that my boss suggested as interesting.
In fact i am the big amateur of the memoires, and i think that this genre of literature is definitely useful. It’s true however that the value of the book depends greatly on the personality of the author.
In our case the author is pretty well knowned politician, the last president of the USSR , Mikhail Sergeevitch Gorbachev ( or Gorbachov in order to be closer with the Russian pronunciation of his name)
The book you can find it on amazon . In case you understand Russian, the book is freely available (Vol. 1, Vol. 2) on the site of Gorbatchev Fundation.
There are a lot of content that could be criticized, but as whole i have found this work worth reading.
