The way perceptions and myths mix with pragmatism andcynicism to form Moscow's outlook on the world is a fascinatingread, which should remain a standard work in its field for a longtime."

Bobo Lo's examination of Russianforeign policy under Putin is the best work on the subject ... Thiswork is not just a powerful contribution to the literature; it islikely to become the starting point for discussions of currentRussian foreign policy ... his work sets the agenda."International Affairs
