Restructuring the Baltic Economies: Disengaging Fifty Years of Integration with the USSR

Rarely have I read such a horrible book. The author's knowlegde of the Baltic States is mediocre at best and therefore the book is filled with errors, inaccuracies, biases and blantant displays of ignorance. In addition, even as the book came out a few years ago, it was already dated and its data did not reflect the economic, political or social reality of the Baltic States. The author's analysis of the three countries is quite unbalanced, dedicating too much coverage to Estonia, just enough to Lithuania and almost forgetting Latvia in the process. I do not recommend this book to anyone.
