The novel Red Plenty by Francis Spufford is about computer scientists and mathematicians in the Soviet Union in this era. Krushchev is also a character in the book, which depicts his visit to the US (but doesn't include this episode).
- fiatmoney 12y ago+1 for Red Plenty. It's a fantastic book. For nonfiction, the book "From Newspeak to Cyberspeak: A History of Soviet Cybernetics" is also excellent.
