Economics, Society, Technology, And You [Paperback]

I am happy to support this book which incorporates nearly three decades of Dr. Ciobanus teaching experience in different countries, different times, and different economic and political environments. The authors experience in diplomacy and international affairs (Dr. Ciobanu is the former ambassador of Moldova to the USA and Canada), in working with different governments (he was one of the young consultants for Mikhail Gorbachev, the last president of the Soviet Union; member of the first independent Moldovas Government, Minister of Privatization and Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs), makes this book even more interesting and appealing.
