Hedrick Smith: The Russians (1976) (08/05/22 16:40:24)
I found this unread in my How_Could_The_Soviet_Union_Be_Possible bookshelf. So I started reading and skipping and found - to me - rather shocking information about the difference in behaviour depending on the status of the other person: was it upwards or downwards? There'd be a world of difference.
When I see the Russian disregard for the lives of own soldiers during the present robber_and_genocidal war against Ukraine, not much seems to have changed.
The book is well worth a read in spite of its age - or maybe because of its age.
