Synopsis The Revolution by : OSHO

Osho brings alive the words of the Indian mystic Kabir with this fiery treatise on the only real revolution that matters—enlightenment. With love, insight and compassion, Osho delves deeply into the essential difference between a rebel and a revolutionary. The sham of the orthodox, conventional and traditional approaches to religion and spirituality are exposed by Osho’s penetrating clarity. In Osho’s hands, Kabir’s approach will give you a glimpse into what kind of religiousness is possible in the future.

Synopsis Development of Class Structure in Eastern Europe by : Aleksander Gella

Emphasizing the development of class structure, this book is the first in English to describe the historical and social development of Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and Romania from medieval feudalism to modern capitalism. Historically these countries have maintained mostly peaceful relations among themselves in the past and now share the common characteristic of being Soviet "satellites." The author has devoted particular attention to Poland because of its unique political system, as well as its greater size, population, and cultural influence. The book is divided into three sections: part one reviews the early history and social structure of each country; part two provides a sociological analysis of social classes and their evolution over centuries; and part three examines the effect that World War II has had on these social classes.
