Five Rules for Rebellion

Reviews / Votes

Rousing, hopeful and important reading -- Caroline Criado Perez, author of Invisible Women The book is a manifesto, a call to arms, and a reminder at a time of increasing tribalism that activism and leadership doesn't have to be a series of pitched battles; it can be a collaborative, enriching experience. Less a polemic than a pep talk, it is an antidote to the rising tide of despair. -- The Herald Sophie Walker will pick you up, dust you off and put the fire in your belly to change the world. Whether you're a new activist or have been in the arena for a while, this book offers sustenance for everyone -- Nimko Ali, CEO and co-founder of The Five Foundation and author of What We're Told Not To Talk About As it becomes depressingly clear that those presently in power are not taking the urgent action required on climate change, poverty and inequality, we must ourselves take action wherever and whenever we can. This book - by one of the most visionary women I have ever met - will tell you how. -- Emma Thompson, actor, screenwriter and activist Sophie is an extraordinary communicator. I've seen her inspire thousands to activism. This book will inspire many more -- Catherine Mayer, co-founder of the Women's Equality Party and author of Attack of the 50 Ft. Women Thoroughly engaging, empowering and inspiring ... blows invigorating air into the weary world of politics and makes you want to get out there NOW and do something about it -- Ailbhe Smyth, co-director of Together For Yes and convenor of Coalition to Repeal the 8th Amendment Short, clear and practical -- Courier Mail
