Surviving Autocracy

Maybe I didn't do my homework before picking up this book but I felt that, for most of it, it was just retelling me things I've seen on the news numerous times with brief moments of actually interesting takes on where to from there. I came for the where to from there and at the exception of a segment in the middle and at the very end I didn't feel like I got much on that, this book wasn't written at the right time for that I assume. It contains a ton of information and if you're new to the topic you might find it interesting if a little dry.
