Description
Dozens of books have been published about Vladimir Putin. And most of them still repeat the same fallacies, clichés, and myths, claims British professor Mark Galeotti, a leading expert on contemporary Russia. In eleven chapters, he sarcastically and engagingly dissects one entrenched myth after another: Why Putin is not a genius strategist. Why he does not adhere to any specific ideology. Why he is not as popular as he might seem. How he manages to be loyal to his people. And what he will do when his term ends? Based on years of research, personal experience, and numerous interviews with Russian politicians, members of Putin's personal guard, and federal tax officials, he offers a surprising and, in many ways, more realistic view of one of the most powerful men in contemporary global politics.
