Features: The "Foreigners Series" is a collection of books that introduce the cultural and social conditions of some countries around the world, further exploring their national and ethnic characteristics. The book "Russians" comprehensively covers the history, politics, science and technology, culture, customs, and folklore of the Russian people. The author has long been engaged in research on the history, current state, society, and culture of this country, with firsthand experiences, insights, and interactions. It provides readers with a positive understanding of the country's cultural and social conditions, as well as its national and ethnic traits. This book adopts a different approach: it collects representative records of the words and deeds of Russian people from available literature, linking them together based on the characteristics revealed in these records to highlight the commonalities of a certain type of person in a specific field. It is believed that the further synthesis of these characteristics will provide a general impression of the cultural personality of the Russian people. These documents include historical monographs, biographies, political commentaries, newspaper articles, and more, featuring individuals from various fields such as politics, science and technology, military, literature, and arts.
