From Library Journal:
Author of Let History Judge and On Socialist Democracy , Medvedev is the closest thing the Soviet Union has to a loyal opposition. As an independent Soviet scholar with access only to public sources, he achieves a remarkably well-informed view of the interests and fears of all three members of the Sino-Soviet-U.S. triangle. The bulk of the book, a chronological account of China's post-1949 relations with each superpower, is accurate but not exciting except where salted with Medvedev's special perceptions, especially of subtle shifts on the Soviet side. The last 50 pages provide a balanced and wise analysis of current trends, concluding that it is in everyone's interest for China to maintain good but independent relations with both superpowers. Useful for both general readers and specialists. Andrew J. Nathan, Political Science Dept., Columbia Univ.
