In this article, the author focuses on the book "Humanity Uprooted," Maurice Hindus. Hindus' new book, though not quite so well written or so revealing as his "Broken Earth," is a fine attempt to describe and interpret practically every phase of Soviet life, "institutions, people, quests." Obviously, in view of the difficulty and magnitude of Hindus's undertaking occasional inaccuracies, contradictions, platitudes, and unwarranted assertions are almost inevitable, particularly since the author seems to excel in immediate sensation and artistic emotion rather than in scientific analysis is.
