From Nyet to Da: Understanding the Russians (Interact Series)

This work lays the groundwork for understanding the new Russia of the late-20th century. As investors revive their interest in Russia and contacts develop, there is increased need for understanding of what drives Russian behaviour and the skills needed to cope with it. This book aims to answer this need. It is written both for those who deal with Russia and its people - whether inside or outside Russia, whether business executives, professional educators or students - and for those who are simply seeking a way to make better sense of what the media tell us daily about Russian current affairs.
