A much needed wake-up call!
18. Juni 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
Although this book has been written by a foreigner, he has a good eye for spotting what are some of the most visible problems in Estonia. It is well known that there are huge problems with the economy, immigration, Russian relations, etc., but rather than merely point this out, the author uses his own experiences to provide possible solutions to help put Estonia back on the path to being a great nation. An interesting view on topics that have not been covered so much by Estonians themselves such as the potential for developing RFID tags, medical tourism, the candy industry and nuclear power - all of which could be possible future engines for economic growth.
All in all a very thought provoking read!

Buyer Beware!
13. Juli 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I've never been motivated to write a review for a book until now. This book is an embarrassment. Set aside the fact that this book is riddled with punctuation errors and notations that should have been removed before publication, even though these errors are so rampant that it's distracting. This book is rife with broad generalizations about Europeans and Estonians that are offensive to me - and I'm an American.
Take this for example. He writes at one point, "I personally find that many Europeans are highly educated and intelligent people, but their logic and ability to reason is not congruent to basic mathematics and the forces of nature. In one way I feel that American logic is designed to adjust to the ever-changing global environment, whereas European logic expects the global environment to adjust to them." That "analysis" wouldn't pass in any institution of higher education in America.
I bought this book because I hoped to learn something about Estonia before traveling there. If you have similar wishes, find another book.

Hope for Estonia?
22. März 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
What I especially liked about this book was the combination of analysis and conclusions. Most comments you read about Estonia are very one-sided. On one side you you have the Estonia-bashers who focus on the mistakes made during the loan financed boom economy. On the other side you have the Estonia-lovers who think no mistakes were made and problems in Estonia are only due to external influence. This book both make frank obervations of mistakes made, draw conclusions from that and propose constructive ideas what to do next.
