Scanned by a guy I know. Even though the Soviets published it, the author was an Australian non-communist lawyer named Roy Turner. From a 2004 obituary:
Roy Turner was expert in criminal cases, bankruptcy, land use, family law and defamation. He acted in many famous cases. In one of those cases he acted for Frank Hardy when he was charged with criminal libel over the famous book Power Without Glory. In another sensational case he acted for the Australian journalist Wilfred Burchett, who sued over a false accusation by Senator Vince Gair that he was a KGB agent. The Federal Liberal Government was furious with Burchett for reporting the North Korean and Vietnam wars from the other side, and denied him a passport. Roy Turner was a pioneer of various law reforms, a member of the inaugural Family Law Council of Australia established under the Family Law Act, and involved in legal aid services, mental health services, and Aboriginal affairs. He undertook a review of Australian legal aid in March 1975. He was a member of the Legislative Council from 1976 to 1984.
