The Limits of Destalinization in the Soviet Union
The Limits of Destalinization in the Soviet Union (1986) examines the forms, aspects and significance of the phenomenon of rehabilitation in the Soviet Union between 1953 and 1980, when victims of Stalin’s terror were released from camps or posthumously rehabilitated.

This book Alzheimer's Disease and Air Pollution – The Development and Progression of a Fatal Disease from ...
