Overall an inspiring and instructive book on how to be more engaged with politics and enacting change, if a little preachy and overly-optimistic at times. Well, this 82 year old woman who once led the aerobics mania of the 80s with her leggings-and-Reebok-clad videos, stated "I spent the time doing wall squats. ma olen Alastairi vaadete ja seisukohtadega iseenesest täiesti nõus, aga isegi mind väsitab, kui ma pean lugema kahe lehekülje kohta kolm korda väljendit "Kamikwasi Trussonomics". The book is divided up in two parts: the first 100 or so pages concern themselves with what has gone wrong in modern politics around the world, but especially post-referendum Britain.

A must-read for anyone thinking about getting into politics or simply wanting to effectuate change by campaigning on an issue close to their heart. there is really no other subject more urgent nowadays than the climate crisis, and this should be a priority in the lives of us all.The first section is a reinforcer as to how and why there is a need for both awareness and activation in relation to the troika of Polarity, Populism and Post Truth (3 P's).

She chronicles her experiences protesting in Washington DC with friends and fellow citizens and getting arrested for civil disobedience. Instead of centering herself, Jan'es book focuses on providing the podium to climate leaders, scientists, activists, labor representatives, and indigenous and young people. Books are an important part of our lives but many of us still struggle with what to do with old books.
