	Achille's Gamble
		When Achille Occhetto, the new General Secretary, closed the debate at the Eighteenth Congress of the Italian Communist Party (P.C.I.) in Rome on March 21, the delegates gave him a ten-minute standing ovation.
		The new leader had passed his test at the congress with tremendous success, giving a dispirited party a new injection of confidence by reassuring its members that their organization could be brought up to date in a spirit of continuity, that it could have new tasks and ambitions without disowning its principles and its itinerary.
		There were some novelties in Occhetto's platform: It dropped democratic centralism, put ecology at the heart of its policy and stressed the vital importance of the feminist movement, symbolically illustrated by the entry of ninety-three women into the 300-member Central Committee.

		While the Party in the end split on exactly this issue, Fouskas insists that the majority decision to follow Party Secretary Achille Occhetto into the new PDS should not be construed as a radical break with the past, still less as a betrayal of the Party's heritage.
		The book is well-argued, well-researched and copiously footnoted.
