Language: RussianAfter the collapse of the USSR and its government Russian humanities and science experienced a disastrous situation: financial support was practically stopped and many areas of study in which Russian scholars were ahead or competed successfully with their foreign colleagues were neglected. George Soros, American philanthropist, spent about a quarter of billion dollars on the support of Russian science and education. This book by Valerii Soifer, a professor of biology at the University of Ohio, tells about the history of the International Program in Sciences by the Soros Foundation, its directions and principles of organization in Russia and several neighboring former soviet republics with the amazing accuracy of a historian and with the passion of a publicist. Contents in English. Name index.
