Boris Slavinsky spent many years researching
Soviet foreign and defense policies in service of the British
government which led him to later undertake academic research in
the subject. He specialized in Russian/Soviet military history and
policies towards the Asia Pacific region and was studying the
Russian Far East shortly before he died.
Geoffrey Jukes is now retired but was formally an
Associate Fellow of the Australian National University.
'Stavinsky's significant volume appears in English for the first time. His work will continue to be referenced as an important bibliography, and to inspire future generations of academics.' -Kimie Hara, Department of Political Science, University of Calgary
