Uncritically lauded by the left and impulsively denounced by the right, the Cuban Revolution is almost universally viewed one dimensionally. Samuel Farber, one of its most informed left-wing critics, provides a much needed critical assessment of the Revolution's impact and legacy.Samuel Farber was born and raised in Marianao, Cuba, and came to the United States in February 1958. His scholarship on Cuba includes two previous books, "Revolution and Reaction in Cuba, 1933-1960 "and "Origins of the Cuban Revolution Reconsidered." Farber was active in the Cuban high school student movement against Fulgencio Batista, and has been involved in socialist politics for more than fifty years.
