Unlike numerous skeptics, Layard and Parker are optimistic about Russia's
future. They analyze the economy and the underlying social and political
forces to demonstrate the relative success of reforms and their implications
for western businesses. They forecast a more rapid growth in Russia over the
next two decades than in most emerging markets and provide specific
recommendations for entrepreneurs, investors and analysts. They end their
book with a useful (though long) 49-page executive summary.
