HÀ NỘI – Russian scholar Daria Mishukova has just published three new books on Vietnamese culture in Moscow.
The books titled “Vietnam – The Culture Code”; “Vietnam – Business with the Dragon”, and “Vietnam – The Dragon’s Children”, are all in Russian language.
The first book is about cultural insights while the second focuses on business issues. The third book features the image of the dragon in Vietnamese culture.
“It is an important part of my heritage for Vietnamese studies in general, and Vietnamology in Russia in particular,” Daria noted in her email about the books sent to Việt Nam News. “The books are published very beautifully. I cannot remember any other book about Việt Nam with such an elegant and stylish layout and cover.”

According to the author, every book has a collection of essays about Việt Nam.
Some essays are unique and can be found only in one specific book, while others are repeated.
As books are to be read independently from each other, naturally some basics are to be repeated.
