Lev Davidovich Bronstein.

Lessons Of October
''Lessons of October'' (Russian: ''Уроки Октября)'' is a polemical essay of about 60 printed pages in length by Leon Trotsky, first published in Moscow in October 1924 as the preface to the third volume of his ''Collected Works.'' The essay was harshly critical of the purported revolutionary failings of Grigory Zinoviev and Lev Kamenev, two key members of the collective leadership which briefly ruled Soviet Russia in the months after the death of V. I. Lenin. Publication of the essay was used as a pretext for the Soviet leadership to isolate and attack Trotsky, whom the leadership mutually perceived as a threat to accede to supreme power. In subsequent years Trotsky's essay was reprinted several times under its own covers by the international Trotskyist movement. Publication history Background Following a series of strokes, which had incapacitated him for more than a year, Soviet leader V.I. Lenin died on January 21, 1924 at the age of 53. Despite his chronic illnes ...

The technical term for this physical arrangement is ''codex'' (plural, ''codices'').

A single sheet in a codex is a Recto, leaf and each side of a leaf is a page (paper), page.

Communist Books
Communism (from Latin la, communis, lit=common, universal, label=none) is a far-left sociopolitical, philosophical, and economic ideology and current within the socialist movement whose goal is the establishment of a communist society, a socioeconomic order centered around common ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange which allocates products to everyone in the society.: "One widespread distinction was that socialism socialised production only while communism socialised production and consumption." Communist society also involves the absence of private property, social classes, money, and the state. Communists often seek a voluntary state of self-governance, but disagree on the means to this end. This reflects a distinction between a more libertarian approach of communization, revolutionary spontaneity, and workers' self-management, and a more vanguardist or communist party-driven approach through the development of a constitutional socialist state ...

My Life (Leon Trotsky Autobiography)
''My Life: An Attempt at an Autobiography'' (Russian: ''Моя Жизнь'') is the name of the Russian revolutionary Communist leader Leon Trotsky's autobiography. The book was first published in 1930 and was written in the first year of Trotsky's exile in Turkey. It covers the time from his youth, through the Revolution of 1905, the Revolution of 1917, the Russian Civil War up to his struggle against Stalinism and eventual expulsion from the Communist Party. The Russian/Soviet historian Dmitri Volkogonov claims that Trotsky's "''My Life'', must hold pride of place as a work of remarkable self-analysis, as well as imaginative history. Although he wrote it at the relatively early age of forty-eight, soon after his deportation, his life up to then had been eventful enough to merit recording." Before he settled with the simple title ''My Life'', Trotsky tried out several titles:Dmitri Volkogonov "Trotsky: The Eternal Revolutionary", page 312. *''Half A Century (1879 - 1929) ...
