Title: Bandits, Gangsters and the Mafia: Russia, the Baltic States and the CIS Since 1991 by Martin McCauley ISBN: 0-582-35764-0 Publisher: Pearson Longman Pub. Date: 29 November, 2001 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $26.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 2 (6 reviews)
Rating: 1
Summary: stinks
Comment: This book was lacklustre. Just more of the attitudes you find in the Economist.
Unless you want a case study of wearisome prejudice and crazy theories, give it a pass.
Rating: 1
Summary: Waste of Money
Comment: I got this book thinking I could get some objective insights into Russia's severe economic difficulties throughout the 90s. Instead, I got a long rant against everything Russian. Particularly dubious is McCauley's sympathy for the Wahhabi bin Laden-sponsored Islamofascists in Chechnya who have been responsible for all kinds of atrocities. I guess their suicide bombings are justified, because they kill evil Russians and not members of the English Royal Family? Oh well. Sergio Vieira de Mello was an apologist for Islamofascists too, but they still murdered him regardless.
Rating: 1
Summary: Absurd
Comment: Yet another British anti-Russian book. We've heard and seen it all before.
The most tiresome thing is the petty Putin "KGB spy" scaremongering. It is time to move on, Martin.
