The book "Famine as a Factor" was written by P. A. Sorokin in 1921–1922. It was already being prepared for publication when the author was forcibly exiled from the RSFSR. The type was scattered, and the printed sheets destroyed. After Pitirim Alexandrovich's death, his widow, Elena Petrovna, used the type removed from the country to produce an abridged translation of the book into English and published it in 1975. This book appeared in Russia 30 years later.

This edition was prepared based on ten printed sheets of "Famine as a Factor" preserved in Russian archives and photocopies of the remaining chapters provided by the sociologist's youngest son, Sergei Pitirimovich.

The book is addressed to sociologists, historians, and anyone interested in the causes of famine in general and the terrible famine that struck Russia in the early 1920s in particular.
