315 pages including footnotes and index. "This explosive book lays bare the personalities and institutional relations behind the headlines. It goes beyond the recent events to discern the roots of contemporary U.S. covert activity within the past two decades. Delves into the details of CIA and extra-CIA operations, including drug-trafficking, gun-running, government-toppling, and assassination." - from back cover. "An informative and shocking book that takes us from the Bay of Pigs fiasco to the drug-fuelled secret war in Laos, from the urban hustle-and-bustle of Tehran to the steamy jungles of Central America. Profiteers pose as patriarchs, mercenaries claim to be humanitarians, and totalitarian thugs commit their atrocities in the name of political freedom - while back in Washington it's all just one more day at the office." - R.T.

LONGANESI 1970 465 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: SEGNI DEL TEMPO, UN PICCOLISSIMO STRAPPO AL FONDO DELLA SOVRACCOPERTA, VOLUME MAI SFOGLIATO. Questa non è soltanto la biografia di un uomo: è anche la storia di un paese. Wladyslaw Gomulka è un paradosso. È allo stesso tempo un innegabile, fervido patriota polacco, e un comunista, in un paese dove il comunismo viene dettato dalla Russia, nemica tradizionale della Polonia. Nel '56 si adoperò per ottenere una certa indipendenza dall'URSS, attirando su di sé non solo le simpatie dei connazionali, ma anche quelle di tutto il mondo. Eppure, nel '68, si preparò a mandare truppe polacche in Cecoslovacchia perché dessero man forte ai carri armati sovietici. Che cosa si cela dietro queste posizioni inconciliabili sotto tutti i punti di vista: politico, diplomatico e umano? Basterebbe la risposta che Bethell offre a questa domanda (forse la prima completa sino a oggi) per indurre il lettore aggiornato a sfogliare avidamente il volume. Bethell, tuttavia, ci rivela fatti di altrettanta importanza, accaduti durante gli ultimi quarant'anni della turbolenta storia della Polonia; ricerca le tracce della carriera di Gomulka nel periodo confuso tra il 20 e il 30, dopo la proclamazione dell'in- dipendenza polacca e la formazione del primo partito comunista in quel paese; ricorda inoltre l'invasione nazista che provocò il secondo conflitto mondiale e l'ascesa di Gomulka nel movimento di resistenza; si sofferma sullo stalinismo, sulle luminose promesse del "56 e sulle oscure delusioni del suo regime dopo quella data. Nicholas Bethell è un esperto della storia polacca e russa, educato al Penbroke College. Oltre a esse redattore del Times Literary Supplement, è traduttore dal russo di Solženicyn e dal polacco di Slawomir Mrozek. Ed ecco alcuni giudizi sul suo Gomulka: «Il pri mo libro che spieghi al lettore occidentale le contraddizioni della vita di Gomulkae la sua politica» (Financial Times). «Lord Bethell ha scritto un libro avvincente che ha fa di Gomulka un punto di partenza anziché di arrivo» (Tribune). «Una lucida narrazione degli eventi drammatici, a volte eroici e sinistri, che hanno accompagnato Gomulka fin dalla gioventù» (The Tablet).
