The Stalin years by Helen Skelton

This is a penetrating and up-to-date account of one of the dramatic aspects of 20th-century history. Published fifty years after Stalin's death, and fully revised and expanded, this second edition looks at the entire period of his rule and includes chapters on ideology, politics, economic development, social change, the nationalities, culture and external relations (including the Second World War) and the Great Terror. The interpretation stresses the connection between internal and external policy and the influence of ideology on both. Mawdsley includes many primary sources, some republished here together for the first time in many years. Others are secret items from the Russian archives that have only become available in the last decade.
Dr. Neely has worked in the mental health field for more than twenty years and holds a PhD in counselor education. She believes that building healthy self-esteem for girls has to start when they are young. Her philosophy is to use history as a tool to educate and motive young girls to embrace their natural beauty. Dr. Neely feels that it's not enough to tell children to love themselves, they also have to be given the history behind the message. Her book gives children a history lesson about African hair and instills pride and heritage. As a licensed professional counselor she works with women and girls on building self-esteem in her private practice. This book was inspired by her qualitative research on dominate beauty standards and hair loss for women of color. www.richardsoncounseling.com
