Book Reviews of The New Cold War: Putin's Russia and the Threat to the West

Book Review: An Important Book
Summary: 4 Stars

While every reader might not agree with every idea Lucas puts forward in this important book (Mr Berezovsky will certainly have a few words to say, I'm sure!), I think most would agree that it is an extremely interesting and on the whole accurate explanation of Russia's present relationship with the West.
Lucas has lived through much of what he writes about in this account and his first hand knowledge imbues this work with both detail and common sense. He has spent most of his journalistic career examining Russia and is therefore particularly well-placed to write such a useful book.
Although the ideas are dense and in some places extremely complex, Lucas writes with clarity and deftness.
A thoroughly interesting book.
