Reviews

`Baev's seminal work of military erudition is, therefore, a must read for the serious Russologist and the military student alike' - USI Journal

`Baev's book is an incisive and comprehensive study of the challenges confronting the armed forces of the Russian Federation in the 1990s. It is also a devastating critique of the chaos and decay within the Russian military establishment after the collapse of communism' - Europe-Asia Studies
