- Summary:
- Vladimir Putin has been Russia's dominant political figure for more than a decade, but he is a man of many identities. Russian experts Hill and Gaddy answer the question, "Who is Mr. Putin?" Drawing on many sources, including their own personal encounters with him, they argue that there are, in fact, several "real Putins."
