Vivid and livid, a compelling and compassionate book about how to make the world a better place. Not only has Lynne Jones participated in many of the landmarks of civil disobedience, she writes about them with crystal clarity. As you read, its hard not to feel history torque, its hard not to get excited about change. -- Mark Cousins, filmmaker and writer Using her remarkable experience as a tireless nonviolent activist, Lynne Jones asks probing questions about how to promote social and climate justice. Her inspiring stories and diary entries from the frontline show movingly that we all can help create a better world. -- Anne Karpf, sociologist, journalist and author of How Women Can Save the Planet An interesting and effective approach ( a) brilliant, challenging book. -- Yorkshire Times The end of our world is arriving so gently that it has become a tragic sideshow in our lives. What most dont yet realise is that we are already fighting for our lives, and we must win. This isnt a manual, it isnt a guide. Its a brutally honest testimonial that inspires real hope when we need it most. -- Chris Packham, author, broadcaster and conservationist A phenomenal book! I recommend reading urgently and frequently. Lynne Jones, a doctor, has somehow maintained a 40+ year career in protest. Her compelling personal history, alongside her expert observations on political movements for change, underpin and sustain the resistance needed for a Just Transition. -- Lucy Siegle, author and journalist Lynne Jones story takes her from aspiring medical student to climate activist, from Greenham Common to international campaigning for public health and social justice. Writing with humour and courage, she reminds us of our common humanity. Anyone wanting to make a difference in the world will find inspiration in this book. -- Fiona Godlee, Ambassador for the UK Health Alliance on Climate Change and former Editor-in-Chief of The BMJ
