This is a definitive new history of Russia from early Rus' to the successor states that emerged after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Volume I encompasses developments before the reign of Peter I; volume II covers the 'imperial era', from Peter's time to the fall of the monarchy in March 1917; and volume III continues the story through to the end of the twentieth century. At the core of all three volumes are the Russians, the lands which they have inhabited and the polities that ruled them, while other peoples and territories have also been given generous coverage for the periods when they came under Riurikid, Romanov and Soviet rule. The distinct voices of individual contributors provide a multitude of perspectives on Russia's diverse and controversial millennial history. This first volume of the Cambridge History of Russia covers the period from early ('Kievan') Rus' to the start of Peter the Great's reign in 1689. It surveys the development of Russia through the Mongol invasions to the expansion of the Muscovite state in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and deals with political, social, economic and cultural issues under the Riurikid and early Romanov rulers. The volume is organised on a primarily chronological basis, but a number of general themes are also addressed, including the bases of political legitimacy; law and society; the interactions of Russians and non-Russians; and the relationship of the state with the Orthodox Church. The international team of authors incorporates the latest Russian and Western scholarship and offers an authoritative new account of the formative 'pre-Petrine' period of Russian history, before the process of Europeanisation had made a significant impact on society and culture.

'Despite economic woes and murky data, global investors are pouring in. Is the bubble set to burst?' was the question posed by Business Week in March 1997. Not according to current data which sees an ever-growing river of foreign cash flowing into Moscow. But how long can it last? Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia and the CIS have become a hunting ground for business and management adventurers. Management consultants, business people, educators, and economists have rushed to do business in the New Russia, taking advantage of the huge sums of money poured into Russia by global investors. But dealing with a fragile, volatile and unpredictable economy is only part of the difficulty facing those wishing to take advantage of a bargain-priced if risky marketplace. Westerners are often faced with serious and sometimes intractable communication problems. The differences in economic and political systems, infrastructures, national and business cultures and managerial attitudes and habits present difficulties not previously encountered elsewhere. To achieve long term success in this part of the world it is essential, perhaps more than anywhere, to build relationships. This means genuinely understanding the past as well as the present. To understand Russia today it is crucial to understand where it has come from. Only then can you have a stake in its future. In order to have any hope of meeting long-term business objectives in this most restless of countries, it is essential to build intense interpersonal relationships. Knowing how to do this requires an informed understanding of Russia's past as well as an appreciation of the complexities of the present transition to market-economy conditions and insights into the Russian business mentality. Without such knowledge, all forms of management cooperation with Russia are placed under severe stress. Dealing with the New Russia helps to demistify the boundaries which must be crossed by focusing on: * Russian and their assumptions about and attitudes to the West * the new-style Russian manager/business executive * the skills needed to initiate and develop a business relationship with Russians * the Russian approach to business negotiation Extensively researched, this practical, accessible and informative book, which includes a glossary of Russian management expressions, will be invaluable for all those contemplating, or embarking on, major involvement with their Russian partners.

`To understand this singular man, the reader can do no better than to turn to Archie Brown's astute and lucid book. There have been several excellent works on Mr Gorbachev ... but none examines the subject as thoroughly as this volume ... a rich study, as impressive in its sweep as in its details.' Abraham Brumberg, New York Times `Archie Brown's book is not only a richly researched, easily readable biography of Gorbachev himself. It should be studied at once in every diplomatic service worthy of the name, starting with our own Foreign Office.' Michael Foot, Evening Standard `Archie Brown has mastered the material and met the people ... he writes with a historical perspective unavailable to authors of the instant biographies which appeared while Gorbachev was in power.' Rodric Braithwaite, Financial Times `Archie Brown's closely reasoned book ... makes a better case for Gorbachev's record as a reformer than Gorbachev's own memoirs ... the most thorough exposition of Gorbachev's domestic political record yet to appear.' Jack F. Matlock, Jr, New York Review of Books `This Oxford don, for years one of the world's most talented Kremlinologists, has already found the memoirs, documents and interviews that allow him to provide a remarkably detailed and authoritative account of the key moments in Gorbachev's career.' Robert G. Kaiser, Washington Post `It is hard to come away from this admirable book without an affection for Gorbachev's insistence on peaceful change, his willingness to let Eastern Europe go and his determination to nurture a pluralist culture.' Nick Cohen, Observer `Brown's latest book is the product of many years of intensive research: it proves to be the most detailed and revealing study of the man who revolutionised the USSR. Excellent.'
