- catalog abstract "The essays, articles, and interviews that make up Essays of a Soviet Scientist offer a revealing portrait of Vitalii Gol'danskii and his generation. Here are Gol'danskii's reminiscences of his extraordinary scientific mentors and colleagues, his reflections on science's obligations to humanity, his writings on the arts and the media, his courageous and passionate arguments against nuclear weapons, and his warnings about the resurgence of anti-Semitism in today's Russia.
