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.

From Nyet to Da,
By Brian Johnson (Utena, Lithuania) - See all my reviews
This review is from: From Nyet to Da: Understanding the Russians (Interact Series) (Paperback)
This book is a must read for anyone traveling or living in the area of the former Soviet Union. I live in Lithuania, which is not part of Russia any longer, but everything that I have read in this book applies to these people. They may not have Russian blood but they have been under Russian rule for over 70 years and the Russian way of thinking is engraved in the minds of these people. Again, this book is a must read for anyone considering to travel or to live in the former Soviet Union.Brian Johnson Lithuania

Modern Russian Culture: From Nyet to Da,
By Michele L Buries (Montoursville PA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: From Nyet to Da: Understanding the Russians (Interact Series) (Paperback)
This book is very informative and easy to read. My husband and I are traveling to Russia sometime in the next 2 months to adopt 2 children and I feel it is important to understand their culture both for now and for their future. I have recommended this book to others on the adoption related mailing lists I am on and others have also responded favorably.
