There are many questions, riddles, and even mysteries associated with the name Y. V. Andropov. What do we know about this person? He was the closest associate of L.I. Brezhnev, had weak health and a sharp mind, was known as an intellectual and a book lover, and headed the most powerful intelligence agency in the world - the KGB of the USSR for 15 years. His origins are still debated. The reforms of the 1980s, high-profile cases against the 'trade mafia,' and the strengthening of discipline are also subjects of debate. During his short tenure as general secretary (just over a year), many economic indicators improved: industrial production increased, the volume of agricultural production grew, labor productivity rose, and the shortage of consumer goods became less acute. This book collects articles by historians, publicists, and journalists that characterize different aspects of the mysterious personality of Y. Andropov.
