Volume II features an additional introductory chapter that links Russia's modern history to the events that preceded it.New to this Edition:* Greater attention to social and cultural history * Updated to cover the Putin and Medvedev administrations* Increased coverage of women and everyday life * Expanded treatment of the twentieth century and the first decade of the twenty-first century* Completely redesigned maps with new full-color reference maps
