the
weary
world

it'

Recenzii
'Rousing,
hopeful
and
important
reading'
| ’The book is a manifesto, a call to arms, and a reminder at a time of increasing tribalism that activism and leadership doesn’t have to be a series of pitched battles; it can be a collaborative, enriching experience. Less a polemic than a pep talk, it is an antidote to the rising tide of despair.’ |
| 'Sophie Walker will pick you up, dust you off and put the fire in your belly to change the world. Whether you're a new activist or have been in the arena for a while, this book offers sustenance for everyone' |
| 'As it becomes depressingly clear that those presently in power are not taking the urgent action required on climate change, poverty and inequality, we must ourselves take action wherever and whenever we can. This book - by one of the most visionary women I have ever met - will tell you how.' |
| 'Sophie is an extraordinary communicator. I’ve seen her inspire thousands to activism. This book will inspire many more' |
| 'Thoroughly engaging, empowering and inspiring ... blows invigorating air into the weary world of politics and makes you want to get out there NOW and do something about it' |
| 'Short, clear and practical' |
