Hardcover. [6], 267, [3] p.; 24 cm. Notes. First published in 1976 under title: Un procès "ordinaire" en U.R.S.S. From Wikipedia: "Stern was born in a Jewish family in a small Ukrainian town of Zhmerynka. In 1944 he received his doctor degree, and in 1947 organized in Chernovtsy the first endocrinological center in Ukraine. In 1…952 he moved to Vinnitsa. In 1974, after his sons, Viktor (born 1941) and August (born 1945), applied for asylum in Israel, Stern was questioned at the Vinnitsa visa office and his flat was searched. Two weeks later he was arrested and in December sentenced to eight years of hard labor in Kharkiv. In 1976, August published a transcript of his father's trial, which was the first time the transcript of a dissident trial was leaked to the public The transcript revealed various inconsistencies, implying that the case was fabricated. In 1977, an international tribunal was organized in Stern's defense in Amsterdam. Stern was released a week before the opening of the tribunal." Very good in good dust jacket. Signed by previous owner. DJ has some wear, soiling, edge tears and chips. First American Edition [stated]. Presumed first printing.
