Author(s): Christopher Hamilton

Self Help

In How to Deal with Adversity, Christopher Hamilton explores how we face trials and tribulations in everyday life, and why adversity, from small setbacks to larger, more life-defining problems, affects and shapes us so fundamentally. In this book from The School of Life series, drawing upon history, philosophy and science, Chris looks at examples of adversity in the contexts of family, illness, love and death and dying, and reflects on how we can best deal with the challenges of life. He invites us to think carefully about the human process of suffering and endurance and offers practical suggestions for facing adversity head on, wherever we encounter it.
