Rangers: Changing Faces is a montage of team groups and player profiles from the Club's first Scottish Cup winners of 1877 to the present day from the archive of Andrew L. Stevenson. In this book he weaves a wonderful tapestry of imagery of players and sides who have done so much for the Ibrox outfit in its long illustrious history. Rangers have won the Scottish League Championship on a record 54 occasions, the Scottish Cup 33 times and the League Cup a record 27 times. In 1972 Rangers became the first Scottish club to win the European Cup Winners Cup and in more recent times also reached the UEFA Cup Final in 2008. This book encapsulates some of the glory by featuring star players down the ages. This collection contains many annual prints; indeed no fewer than 102 First Team group photographs are on display, and never before has the identity of so many Rangers players been revealed. From the black and white Victorian early days right through to the modern era of glorious colour we can observe the many changes in football fashion and facial appearance. Administration in 2012 saw Rangers drop to the fourth tier, but hopefully the Ibrox men will soon be back where they belong sitting at the top table of Scottish Football.

This book offers an engaging introduction to cultural and cross-cultural psychology and offers an interdisciplinary approach to the key research theories and controversies that impact on human behaviour in a global context.
