Summary
Yes, it combines perseverance and resilience. But it does so much more than that. It is the ability to turn any setback into an opportunity, by embracing a mindset that is not just tougher, but more positive, and built on belief and integrity. Blending the sharp political analysis for which he is known around the world with candid personal reflections on grief, disappointment, mental health, friendship, family and love, Alastair Campbell’s latest work introduces a new value to strive for. Like Nudge, The Third Way or The End of History, it has the potential to enter the bloodstream of political conversation, and ultimately help us better understand and thrive in the ever more challenging world around us.

Alastair Campbell
Alastair Campbell was born in Keighley, Yorkshire in 1957, the son of a vet. Having graduated from Cambridge University in modern languages, he went into journalism, principally with the Mirror Group.
When Tony Blair became leader of the Labour Party, Campbell worked for him first as press secretary, then as official spokesman and director of communications and strategy from 1994 to 2003. He continued to act as an advisor to Mr Blair and the Labour Party, including during subsequent election campaigns.
He now splits his time between writing, speaking, politics in Britain and overseas, consultancy and charity, as chairman of fundraising for Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research, and a leading ambassador for the mental health campaign Time to Change.
He lives in North London with his partner of thirty-five years, Fiona Millar. They have three children. His interests include running, cycling, bagpipes and Burnley Football Club. He has published six volumes of diaries, including the number one Sunday Times bestseller, The Blair Years, a memoir on depression, The Happy Depressive, and three novels.
