Book Description
Fifty Lessons in Russian is a short course aiming at teaching the student the fundamentals of Russian phonetics, grammar and vocabulary. On completing the course the student will be able to read and understand simple Russian texts, write and speak on everyday subjects.Phonetics is mainly introduced in the first 13 lessons in which most Russian sounds are explained via a comparison with their English counterparts, and pronunciation, reading and spelling rules are dealt with. In the same lessons only the most elementary grammar is given.In the following lessons further grammar needed for spoken Russian is introduced in texts based on carefully selected vocabulary. The texts reflect the various aspects of Soviet life and culture.The vocabulary chosen for the course contains approximately 1,000 words used in colloquial Russian and therefore indispensable to any student of Russian and to tourists.In each lesson there are exercises designed to provide practice in the vocabulary and grammar introduced in the lesson concerned. Most exercises can be checked with the Key supplied at the end of the course.One of the main features of the course is its conciseness. Fifty Lessons in Russian is intended for entire beginners, adults or schoolchildren.The Key to the Exercises gives the student the opportunity to correct his own mistakes, which is a great help in studying a language, and permits the course to be studied without a teacher.A general Russian-English vocabulary is given at the end of the book.

Book Description
Lee Marsden presents one of the most original and comprehensive analyses of US democracy promotion in Russia and argues that in order to understand the failings of democracy assistance in Russia, it is necessary to understand the inter-relation of macro- and micro-level policy. The book introduces two new models of foreign policy analysis which increase understanding of both the formulation and implementation of foreign policy. Furthermore, it demonstrates how the promotion of democracy in Russia was substantially flawed due to implementation and the US foreign policy process.

Book Description
This report assesses the annexation of Crimea by Russia (February–March 2014) and the early phases of political mobilization and combat operations in Eastern Ukraine (late February–late May 2014). It examines Russia’s approach, draws inferences from Moscow’s intentions, and evaluates the likelihood of such methods being used again elsewhere.

Book Description
A Dazzling Russian travelogue from the bestselling author of Great Plains In his astonishing new work, Ian Frazier, one of our greatest and most entertaining storytellers, trains his perceptive, generous eye on Siberia, the storied expanse of Asiatic Russia whose grim renown is but one explanation among hundreds for the region's fascinating, enduring appeal. In Travels in Siberia, Frazier reveals Siberia's role in history—its science, economics, and politics—with great passion and enthusiasm, ensuring that we'll never think about it in the same way again. With great empathy and epic sweep, Frazier tells the stories of Siberia's most famous exiles, from the well-known—Dostoyevsky, Lenin (twice), Stalin (numerous times)—to the lesser known (like Natalie Lopukhin, banished by the empress for copying her dresses) to those who experienced unimaginable suffering in Siberian camps under the Soviet regime, forever immortalized by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in The Gulag Archipelago. Travels in Siberia is also a unique chronicle of Russia since the end of the Soviet Union, a personal account of adventures among Russian friends and acquaintances, and, above all, a unique, captivating, totally Frazierian take on what he calls the "amazingness" of Russia—a country that, for all its tragic history, somehow still manages to be funny. Travels in Siberia will undoubtedly take its place as one of the twenty-first century's indispensable contributions to the travel-writing genre.
