”Epäilemättä tärkeimpiä nykyistä Venäjää koskevista analyyseistä. Beltonin erittäin yksityiskohtainen ja analyyttinen kerronta ei jätä sijaa jossittelulle.”Katri Pynnöniemi, apulaisprofessori, Helsingin yliopisto ja MaanpuolustuskorkeakouluKirja on selvästi Venäjää pitkään seuranneen Catherine Beltonin magnum opus: teos, johon hän on koonnut kaiken Putinista ja Venäjästä tietämänsä. Sitä onkin todella paljon.”Hannu Himanen, tietokirjailija, suurlähettiläs emeritusTutkiva journalisti ja Moskovan kirjeenvaihtaja Catherine Belton kertoo, miten Vladimir Putin ja hänen lähipiirissään oleva KGB-miesten ryhmä kaappasi vallan Venäjällä.Yhdysvaltojen vaalien häirintä. Ääriliikehdinnän tukemista Euroopassa. Sota Ukrainassa. Viime vuosina Vladimir Putinin Venäjä on kampanjoinut lisätäkseen vaikutusvaltaansa ja heikentääkseen länsimaisia instituutioita. Miten tämä kaikki tapahtui, ja kuka tämän kaiken orkestroi?Belton paljastaa miten Putin korvasi Jeltsinin kauden suurliikemiehet uuden sukupolven uskollisilla oligarkeilla, jotka horjuttivat Venäjän taloutta ja oikeusjärjestelmää sekä ulottivat Kremlin kouran Yhdysvaltoihin ja Eurooppaan.Tuloksena on paljastava kuvaus KGB:n paluusta - tarina, joka alkaa Neuvostoliiton romahduksesta, jolloin liikemiesverkostot pystyivät kahmimaan miljardeja dollareita valtion yrityksistä omille tileilleen länsimaihin. Putin sisäpiireineen saattoi asian päätökseen vahvistamalla Venäjän mahdin samalla kun otti talouskontrollin itselleen, tukahdutti epäsuosioon joutuneiden äänet ja käynnisti salaisen vaikutustoiminnan ulkomailla.Putinin sisäpiirissä -teos osoittaa, miten toiveet uudesta Venäjästä valuivat tyhjiin - ja millaisia vakavia seurauksia sillä on ollut venäläisille ja ennen kaikkea koko maailmalle.Catherine Belton on kirjoittanut kirjaan erillisen johdannon nimenomaan suomalaisia lukijoita varten.Catherine Belton on Reutersin tutkiva journalisti. Hän työskenteli vuosina 2007-2013 Financial Timesin Moskovan kirjeenvaihtajana. Belton on aiemmin kirjoittanut Venäjästä mm. Business Week -lehteen. Hän asuu Lontoossa.

Book in Russian A New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller A New York Times Book Review Editors' ChoiceNamed a best book of the year by The Economist Financial Times New Statesman The Telegraph"[Putin's People] will surely now become the definitive account of the rise of Putin and Putinism." -Anne Applebaum, The Atlantic"This riveting, immaculately researched book is arguably the best single volume written about Putin, the people around him and perhaps even about contemporary Russia itself in the past three decades." -Peter Frankopan, Financial TimesInterference in American elections. The sponsorship of extremist politics in Europe. War in Ukraine. In recent years, Vladimir Putin's Russia has waged a concerted campaign to expand its influence and undermine Western institutions. But how and why did all this come about, and who has orchestrated it?In Putin's People, the investigative journalist and former Moscow correspondent Catherine Belton reveals the untold story of how Vladimir Putin and the small group of KGB men surrounding him rose to power and looted their country. Delving deep into the workings of Putin's Kremlin, Belton accesses key inside players to reveal how Putin replaced the freewheeling tycoons of the Yeltsin era with a new generation of loyal oligarchs, who in turn subverted Russia's economy and legal system and extended the Kremlin's reach into the United States and Europe. The result is a chilling and revelatory expose of the KGB's revanche-a story that begins in the murk of the Soviet collapse, when networks of operatives were able to siphon billions of dollars out of state enterprises and move their spoils into the West. Putin and his allies subsequently completed the agenda, reasserting Russian power while taking control of the economy for themselves, suppressing independent voices, and launching covert influence operations abroad.Ranging from Moscow and London to Switzerland and Brooklyn's Brighton Beach-and assembling a colorful cast of characters to match-Putin's People is the definitive account of how hopes for the new Russia went astray, with stark consequences for its inhabitants and, increasingly, the world.

Le Corbusier's Pavilion for Zurich

Le Corbusier's Pavilion for Zurich

Le Corbusier's Pavilion for Zurich uses numerous handwritten documents, drawings, and papers to trace the history of Le Corbusier's last built work. This dwelling, which is also a museum, was initiated by Zurich gallery owner Heidi Weber. With its abstract forms and colors, it represents an intellectual legacy of the famous architect in which the further development of architecture as envisaged by Le Corbusier is clearly legible. From the first ideas and sketches from and beyond, the genesis of this exceptional building - the completion of which the architect did not live to see - is presented with lavish use of illustrations and documents. This book explains for the first time the significance of the pavilion, which differs strongly from the beton brut of Le Corbusier's late work, in terms of its position as one of the architect's central and forward-looking works.

This novel, described by the San Francisco Chronicle Book Review as "nothing short of miraculous," is the story of Zebra Wong, a Chinese girl whose pragmatic mind conflicts with her passionate heart; Lion Head, her classmate, whose penchant for romantic intrigue belies his political ambitions, and Katherine, the seductive American with the red lipstick and the wild laugh who teaches them English and other foreign concepts: individualism, sensuality, the Beatles. In Katherine's classroom, repression and rebellion meet head-on-and the consequences are both tragic and liberating.

"An inspiration and the benchmark by which I judge historical novels."--Alison Weir"Exhilarating, exuberant, and rich," Katherine is an epic novel of a love affair that changed history--that of Katherine Swynford and John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, the ancestors of most of the British royal family (Austin Chronicle).Set in the vibrant fourteenth century of Chaucer and the Black Death, the story features knights fighting in battle, serfs struggling in poverty, and the magnificent Plantagenets--Edward III, the Black Prince, and Richard II--who rule despotically over a court rotten with intrigue. Within this era of danger and romance, John of Gaunt, the king's son, falls passionately in love with the already-married Katherine. Their affair persists through decades of war, adultery, murder, loneliness, and redemption. Anya Seton's vivid rendering of the lives of the Duke and Duchess of Lancaster makes Katherine an unmistakable classic.
