Rose Brady is editor of European and Latin American editions of Business Week magazine. As the magazine’s Moscow bureau chief from 1989 to 1993, Brady covered the collapse of the Soviet Union and the launch of Russia’s radical economic reforms. Since 1994 she has returned for a number of extended visits to cover, among other events, Boris Yeltsin’s reelection and the rise of Russia’s tycoons.
"[An] impressive and informative account of the agonies of economic reform in Russia...Skillfully employing wide-ranging interviews with policymakers, entrepreneurs, and experts, and making the most of her keen eye for human and social detail, [Brady] gives the reader an insider's view of where the process went awry and why so few have benefited." Foreign Affairs "One of the most coherent accounts to date of the disassembly of the economy of the Evil Empire." Fen Montaigne, New York Times Book Review "Brady's scholarly thoroughness makes her book something like a videotape that we can now replay to figure out what the magician was really doing when it seems he was pulling capitalism out of his hat." Anthony Alcott, Washington Post Book World "A compelling, close-up account of the Russian economy." Scott Shane, Baltimore Sun
