Книга Лоримера появилась вскоре после войны, когда интерес к
Советскому Союзу в мире был очень велик, а книги, выходившие в то
время в СССР, оставляли его неудовлетворенным. Это в полной мере
относилось и к демографической литературе. Демографическая наука
почти перестала существовать в СССР еще в 30-е годы, никакие
исследования текущей демографической ситуации в стране не велись,
статистика была засекречена, книги и статьи по демографии не
публиковались. Поэтому монография Ф. Лоримера стала едва ли не
первым обобщающим фундаментальным исследованием, подводившим
демографический итог почти трех десятилетий непростой советской
истории, многие события которой тщательно скрывались руководством
СССР, и довольно долго сохраняла эту свою уникальность. Книга
содержит огромное количество фактических данных, собранных
буквально по крупицам. Прежде всего тщательному анализу подверглись
результаты переписи населения 1926 года, а также опубликованные до
Второй мировой войны результаты переписи 1939 года. Несмотря на
весьма ограниченные источники информации, Фрэнку Лоримеру все же
удалось путем прямого или косвенного анализа дать достаточно
объективную характеристику динамики рождаемости, смертности и
миграции и оценить потери в результате трагических событий,
отмечавшихся в СССР в первой половине ХХ века.
