Key features of the textbook include:
Use of original texts and application of material by choosing topics which reflect the students' general interests, according to a survey conducted among Humanities undergraduates and which are essential for students of Russian language, culture, and society;
Practical skills: the textbook allows students to process primary text sources, summarising, writing, and expressing their views on certain sociopolitical issues;
Raises issues which are being widely discussed in present-day Russia and introduces trends in the development of modern Russian society;
Providing feedback: students can check their work against answer keys that feature in a number of exercises as well as find discussions on different grammatical topics in the Appendix.
