<br/><br/> Since the mid 1990s Russia has acheived a remarkable economic resurgence made possible by the boom in its oil and gas industries. In 2006 Russia was again the world's largest poducer of petroleum and is the source of vast gas exports across Europe and Asia with some countries entirely dependent on Russian supplies. This book considers Russia as an energy superpower, the long term production outlook, the effect of new economic power on Russia's foreign relations, and whether oil wealth will be beneficial to ordinary Russian citizens.
