Book excerpt: Perpetrating the tradition established by earlier radical scholars of the Chinese revolutionary leader and his thought, the 14 essays also strive to establish a basis for innovative perspectives that mobilize the theoretical precepts of critical Left and radical theory. The topics include the Woman Question in an age of green politics, orthodoxy, social formation and change, and Stalinism in the history of the Chinese Communist Party. Five essays explore Mao's influence in the Andes, India, Vietnam, Japan, and the Philippines. Paper edition (unseen), $19.95. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
