- This book, part of Twayne's series on world leaders, is a synthetic[1] study of Kropotkin's social and political thought, not a history of a revolutionary. Its introductory biographical sketch pulls from earlier biographies. Later chapters contextualize Kropotkin's thought against his forebears.[2] The final chapter considers Kroptokin's application in contemporary politics.[1] The author regards Kropotkin's moral criticism highly but finds his historical writing and scientific case for altruism uncompelling. Edward Acton noted some printing errors and described its tone as "homage", with "breathless" prose limited by its unhistorical approach.[2] Martin A. Miller, whose biography of Kroptokin is cited,[2] wrote that the author achieved his aims of a well-organized, readable overview of Kropotkin's historical importance and continued relevance to modern political theory.[1]
