by Vladimir Shlapentokh, Eero Carroll, Eric B. Shiraev, et al.

The book analyzes Soviet society as a 'hard reality', emphasizes the varying perceptions of it in the Soviet Union and the US, and insists that, while glorifications of the Soviet reality have been useful, the most accurate descriptions of this reality were critical.
