Согласно опросу британского The Independent, Путина считают лучшим в мире политиком более 90 % читателей. Говорить, что Владимир Владимирович – кумир жителей России – излишне (Всероссийский центр изучения общественного мнения утверждает: рейтинг президента давно держится на максимуме, составляя выше 82 %!).

Почему молодые девчонки готовы петь: "Такого как Путин, полного сил, Такого как Путин, чтобы не пил, Такого как Путин, чтоб не обижал, Такого как Путин чтоб не убежал…"? Автор научных работ, в том числе монографий в области политических наук и истории Отечества – Алексей Мухин – создал самую человечную книгу о самой популярной личности в новейшей Истории страны и мира. Мы видим президента в разных образах: "самурая", практикующего дзюдо; Путина-мистика на пути развития религиозного самосознания; миссионера, желающего "спасти Россию"; человека, увлеченного спортом, музицированием, изучением суфизма, обожающего домашних и диких зверушек; человека, в чьей жизни есть место даже любви…
