The subtitle of the 4-volume edition was "Sotsiologo-lingvisticheskoe 
issledovanie." Individual volumes were devoted to 
"Leksika/Slovoobrazovanie/Morfologiia i sintaksis/Fonetika/ sovremennogo 
russkogo iazyka." Accompanying this project (which was intended to mark 
the fiftieth anniversary of the October Revolution) was a series of 
collective volumes with parallel titles: "Razvitie sintaksisa 
(leksiki/fonetiki/funktsional'nykh stilei/slovoobrazovaniia/grammatiki i 
leksiki) sovremennogo russkogo iazyka" published between 1963 and 1968. 
There were also volumes called "Razvitie sovremennogo russkogo iazyka" 
(1963) and "Razvitie sovremennogo russkogo iazyka 1972" (1975) and a 
1974 volume called "Russkii iazyk po dannym massovogo obsledovaniia. 
Opyt sotsial'no-lingvisticheskogo izucheniia." There were also two 
editions of I. F. Protchenko's "Leksika i slovoobrazovanie russkogo 
iazyka sovetskoi epokhi. Sotsiolingvisticheskii aspekt," the second 
expanded edition in 1985. There was also a series of studies of 
"Russkaia razgovornaia rech'."
