= Parr/ Badger II, p.77: "Shot on the streets of Kiev and Kharkov (Mikhailov's hometown) (...) both books are a searing indictment of a society that has broken down and whose vacuum has been filled by the 'free' market, which in the photographer's own words, has given rise to a 'society of wolves'. The sense of chaos, despair and misery is unrelenting, with image after image detailling environmental decay, shabby street people, food queues and comatose drunks lying on the streets. (...) Neither work could be described as uplifiting in tone, but the pair make for an immensely powerful, unsettling, yet subtle photobook."
= Parr/ Badger II, p.309: "While the previous work [Am Boden/ Die Dämmerung] explored the street scene, this one looks at a specific sector of society and a particular problem following perestroika - the increased numbers of bomzehs, homeless people without any social support. And while in previous books Mikhailov photographed in a discreet manner, in Case History he gets up-close and personal. This aspect has made the book controversial, attracting disapprobation both for its subject matter and for Mikhailov's treatment of it. (...) It is an immensely troubling, complicated book,and although one might feel that Mikhailov has overstepped the moral mark, his awesome sense of purpose and coruscating honesty redeems his images just at the point when they seem irredeemable."
