Boris Dyshlenko’s book provides a deep analysis of social mechanisms and public transformations. The author uses the metaphor of the millstone to illustrate the relentless processes that grind up established societal structures and forge new social realities.

This book will appeal both to specialists in sociology and philosophy and to a wide range of readers interested in issues of social development.
