The 'Casebook' contributors compellingly warn of replacing one mask with another, one black-and-white myth with its simple inversion." ―New York Times
". . . an important and readable collection. . . . It presents a devastating critique of Volkov's claims and scholarly practices in Testimony." ―New York Review of Books
