This book is the first substantial study in any language of one of revolutionary Russia's most distinguished and controversial engineers - Iurii Vladimirovich Lomonosov (1876-1952). It explores his life both for its considerable intrinsic interest and for its value as a new window on three core subject areas: the history of revolutionary Russia the history of science and technology and the history of transport. The book employs an exceptionally rich base of high-quality primary sources that not only provides a much-needed account and assessment of Lomonosov's life but also contributes to the growing academic interest in the history of science and technology in Russia and the Soviet Union.
