by Michael D. Gordin (Editor)
Explores the transformations in science in the history of Russia and the Soviet Union, from serfdom to Sputnik, as a series of developments in Russian culture. This volume argues that it was the generation of the 1860s that transformed "intelligentsia" into a central notion of Russian popular discourse.
