In Moscow's Shadows 133: Books on Russia, Books on Ukraine

As I'm travelling this weekend, this episode is a compilation of two sets of comparative book reviews already provided to my Patrons.

First up, three recent books on Russia that, together, would make up one pretty fine, balanced and comprehensive one...

• Thomas Graham, Getting Russia Right (Polity)
• Richard Sakwa, The Lost Peace (Yale)
• Leon Aron, Riding the Tiger (AEI)

In the second half, three more books, this time all about Ukraine:

• Maria Popova & Oxana Shevel, Russia and Ukraine. Entangled histories, diverging states (Polity)
• Simon Shuster, The Showman (William Collins)
• Andrew Harding, A Small, Stubborn Town (Ithaka)

The podcast's corporate partner and sponsor is Conducttr, which provides software for innovative and immersive crisis exercises in hybrid warfare, counter-terrorism, civil affairs and similar situations.
