The Oligarchs: Wealth And Power In The New Russia

In this saga of brilliant triumphs and magnificent failures, David E. Hoffman, the former Moscow bureau chief for the Washington Post, sheds light on the hidden lives of Russia's most feared power brokers: the oligarchs. Focusing on six of these ruthless menâ€” Alexander Smolensky, Yuri Luzhkov, Anatoly Chubais, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, Boris Berezovsky, and Vladimir Gusinskyâ€”Hoffman shows how a rapacious, unruly capitalism was born out of the ashes of Soviet communism.
