"perhaps the definitive book thus far on Cuba since the dissolution of Soviet aid and trade. It offers a well-researched, well-balanced account of how the Castor regime has adapted to the new world order. The book covers the economy, polity, and religion in the new Cuba." - Journal of Politics

"This is the book to turn to for information about the depth of the economic crisis into which Cuba was thrown after 1989; the dizzying series of economic reforms and their rationale and effects; the ins and outs of United States-Cuba relations; and the Cuban government's improving relationship with the Catholic Church and the details of the Pope's 1998 visit and its effects--in short, a chronicling of the events of the past 12 years in many different spheres."

"Well-written and thoroughly documented, it provides valid insights into the survival of the Cuban Revolution in the face of extreme adversity; the flexibility of the Cuban leadership in their ability to make the best of a horrendous situation; and the determination of the Cuban people to sustain their sovereignity and their independence."

"Azicri offers a comprehensive view of the government's accommodation to changed international circumstances, economic and ideologic. For anyone interested in the policy choices of the past decades and their official justification (which at times entailed a reversal of positions that had been corrected previously) this is a must read."

"Azicri's work contains a massive amount of useful information on contemporary Cuba and nicely complements other recently published works on the island nation."
