Fortitude

Resilience is the buzzword of the moment. We`re told that if we have it, our lives will be happy and successful ones. If we don`t, we need to acquire it. But what if the version of resilience we`ve been peddled is a myth? Here, Sunday Times bestselling author Bruce Daisley demolishes a concept that has spawned a multi-million pound industry of books, workshops and courses, exposing the highly questionable science it rests on. In its place he outlines a very different approach to good mental health that embraces the latest science and research. Offering empirically tested advice, Fortitude sets out a practical path to greater self-confidence and courage for us all.
