SUMMARY:Book Talk: Putin and Putin's World
DESCRIPTION:Of all the tasks facing Western analysts and policymakers today
 \, few can be more important than trying to understand the mind and goals 
 of President Vladimir Putin.  One of the very best sources of insights int
 o Putin’s thinking and character\, and how they have changed over the ye
 ars\, is the magisterial biography Putin: His Life and Times by Philip Sh
 ort\, published in 2022. Mr Short has written that “To explain is not to
  justify. Putin’s regime is dark. He pursues his goals relentlessly by w
 hatever means he thinks fit. But on closer examination\, much of what we t
 hink we know about him turns out to rest on half-truths.”
