This copy has an inscription by co-editor Joseph Godson that reads: "To Elise and Tom With warmest good wishes and much appreciation to two good friends. Joe Godson January 1982". Leonard Bertram Naman Schapiro CBE (22 April 1908 - 2 November 1983) was a British scholar of the origins and development of the Soviet political system. He taught for many years at the London School of Economics, where he was Professor of Political Science with Special Reference to Russian Studies. Schapiro was best known for his study, The Communist Party of the Soviet Union, though his early work on the rise to power of the Bolshevik Party, The Origins of the Communist Autocracy, was his most intellectually ambitious contribution to the field of Soviet studies.

This volume attempts to discover, by looking at many varieties of evidence, to what extent the working class of the USSR has been the beneficiary of a revolution which was ostensibly carried out on its behalf, and of over sixty years of rule in its name by a communist party. The motive force behind Marx's analysis of society--probably the most potent intellectual influence of the last two centuries--was the desire to put right the injustice presented by the exploitation of the majority in industrial countries, the proletariat, by the minority, the bourgeoisie.
