After living with a Native Russian for the last 2 years I'm sure much of this book wouldn't surprise me.
From what I've seen there are some really good things in Russian culture, and some not so good. Just like America. We can learn from them, and they can learn from us. Maybe this book will help that.

Street-bears population must be kept at a sufficient level to allow for the traditional morning bear-breakfast: In order for a Russian wife to prove to her husband that she's ready to have children, she has to wake up before sunrise, kill a bear with her bare hands and bring it home for breakfast.
