[A detailed operational "play-by-play" of the largest military conflict in history. Uses mainly Soviet source material and dispels much of Western caricaturization and misconceptions. Glantz - an American military historian who specializes in this area and knows as much about it as anyone - concludes that the USSR could have "probably" won the war by 1948 without the lend-lease aid and without the Allied Normandy landings.] War of Annihilation: Combat and Genocide on the Eastern Front, 1941, by Geoffrey Megargee (recently finished) [A book about the German Army's oft-whitewashed involvement in the Holocaust and other war-crimes in Russia.] Everyday Stalinism - Ordinary Life in Extraoridnary Times: Soviet Russia in the 1930s, by Sheila Fitzpatrick Middle Andzia: a memoir, by Anda M.

I like the way his thinking merges philosophy and science. I don't know why you would say something like that. Either you don't agree with him or you don't like the way he writes? | ||

His opinions are farthest from my own  . Unless I'm mistaken, he's a total materialist/physicalist who says that the problem of consciousness is a fictitious problem caused by imprecise language only. | ||
