The Ghost of the Executed Engineer: Technology and the Fall of the Soviet Union - Russian Research Center Studies
Loren Graham
Through Graham, executed engineer Peter Palchinsky tells of Soviet technology and industry, the mistakes he condemned in his lifetime, the corruption and collapse he predicted, the ultimate price paid for silencing those who were not afraid to speak out. Palchinsky’s story is also the story of the Soviet Union's industrial promise and failure.
