The common reaction is to bear it as best we can - some do this better than others - and move on with life. Christopher Hamilton proposes a different response to adversity. Focusing on the arenas of family, love, illness and death, he explores constructive ways to deal with adversity and embrace it to derive unique insight into our condition. Offering examples from history, literature and science, he suggests how we might recognize it as a precious source of enlightenment, shaping our very existence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e One in the new series of books from The School of Life, launched January 2014: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eHow to Age\u003c\/i\u003e by Anne Karpf\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eHow to Develop Emotional Health\u003c\/i\u003e by Oliver James\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eHow to Be Alone \u003c\/i\u003eby Sara Maitland\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eHow to Deal with Adversity \u003c\/i\u003eby Christopher Hamilton\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eHow to Think About Exercise \u003c\/i\u003eby Damon Young\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eHow to Connect with Nature \u003c\/i\u003eby Tristan Gooley\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 162\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.37 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 02, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42123754733703,"sku":"9780230771666","price":16.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/da32f480fd9b71da1dfeb3f3d73b0d66.webp?v=1732567790","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/how-to-deal-with-adversity-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
