An inside account of the events unfolding in the Soviet Union under Mikhail Gorbachev. In a series of interviews, 14 leaders of Gorbachev's reforms talk about their personal and political struggles to change the Soviet Union. They include the Politburo member often called Gorbachev's right-hand man; three other members of the powerful Central Committee; leaders of the revolt against the old cultural bureaucracy, including Russia's most outspoken actor, poet and film-maker; and equally prominent reformers in economics, science, journalism and foreign policy. Other works by Stephen F.Cohen include "Bukharin and the Bolshevik Revolution", "An End to Silence" and "Sovieticus".

We seem to stand at a crossroads: do we need to fix the system as a matter of urgency, or would it be better to hold our nerve?
