Jonathan Haslam is professor of the history of international relations at the University of Cambridge, fellow of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and a fellow of the British Academy.
"'Jonathan Haslam has produced the first comprehensive account of Soviet policy between the October Revolution and the fall of the Berlin Wall, using an astonishing array of original materials that take readers into the heart of decision-making in Moscow and its satellites.' (Michael Burleigh, Sunday Telegraph) 'There are rich rewards in its fascinating insights, well balanced judgements and original, sometimes provocative arguments, which are bound to stimulate debate for years to come.' (Orlando Figes, Sunday Times) 'Haslam's superb research puts his book in a league of its own, and it is hard to imagine it being surpassed as an account of what went on inside Russian foreign policy in this period.' (Simon Heffer, Daily Telegraph) 'This book lets off fireworks that light up many shadowy corners.' (Robert Service, Times Literary Supplement)"
