Note

Reading p.41; Burke/ Kindel/ Walker, p.360: "'The Soviets and Ourselves' (...) begun during wartime and, while certified to conform with the Book Production War Economy Standard, they were subsidized by the Ministry of Inofmation. This explains the extensive colour printing afforded to the isotype charts." I. M. LOVELL, Landsmen and Seafarers; II. K.E. HOLME, Two Commonwealths; III. R. PARKER, How do you tovarish?
