Leon Trotsky: My Life

My Life


Description

The only Bolshevik leader to write his memoirs, Leon Trotsky published this remarkable book in 1930, the first year of a perilous, decade-long exile that ended with his assassination in Mexico. Expelled from the Communist party and deported from the Soviet Union, the former People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs recalled his lifelong struggle in the world of revolutionary politics. In addition to his firsthand accounts of theearly intrigueswithin the Communist government, Trotsky also delivered chilling glimpses into the rise of the new Soviet bureaucracy and prescient warnings of the Stalinist regime's horrors. "My Life" recounts the rise of the revolutionary wave in Russia in 1905 and 1917, the devastating effects of World War I, and the degeneration of the Russian Revolution from Lenin's internationalist course to Stalin's increasingly counterrevolutionary policies. Trotsky's exile placed him beyond the pale of both the official Communist party and the rest of the political world; yet in this fascinating historical document, he remains true to a philosophy of permanent world revolution, offering a highly informed perspective on the struggle toward a socialist future."

"This excellent book could not be more timely. It must now be apparent to almost everyone that we cannot go on as we have done in the past ...The authors set out a vision of a future in which we have rebalanced our relationship with the world around us. They give us a sense of purpose and reason for hope that, together, we might be able to attain it." Professor Martin McKee CBE, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK "This book grounds the new approach to public health in systems thinking, challenges mantras of modernity and My Life free download pdf prioritizes sustainability and well-being. Read it and take the third public health revolution the next step forward." Professor Ilona Kickbusch, Director Global Health Programme, The Graduate Institute, Geneva, Switzerland "With the emerging evidence from the Human Genome Project that genes play little part in the genesis of most illness, this is a particularly timely book: it shows the central part that public health interventions must play in creating a healthy population."
