Gina Miller came to prominence when she brought one of the most significant constitutional cases ever to be heard in the British Supreme Court. Gina successfully challenged the UK government's authority to trigger Article 50 - the formal notification to leave the European Union - without parliamentary approval. For standing up for what she believed was right, Miller became the target of not just racist and sexist verbal abuse, but physical threats to her and her family.

One question she kept being asked was how could she keep going at the cost of so much pain and aggravation? To her the answer was obvious: she'd been doing it all her life.

In Rise, Gina Miller draws on a lifetime of fighting injustice and looks at the moments that made her; the trauma, failures and successes that gave her the confidence in her voice, the ability to know how to use it and the strength not to let others diminish it, even when it came at incredible cost. To those who say one person cannot make a difference, this memoir demonstrates irrefutably how you can.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Unapologetic, businesslike and impatient to make a difference" (AFUA HIRSCH)
"This book is essential for any woman in a male-dominated industry . . . [Miller] is a woman of true grit and courage, of whom we should all - whatever our views on Brexit - be proud"
"A remarkable story of a remarkable woman, whose courage one can only admire, whatever your politics" (RACHEL JOHNSON)
"Gina Miller is one of the most exciting breakthrough leaders of the last few years. Her unbreakable courage in the face of danger has been an example to us all, but this courage was not developed overnight. Hers is a life of triumph over adversity and fighting for what she believes to be right. The words in these pages will empower and inspire anyone who wants to make a difference. Change happens when individuals speak truth to power and Gina shows us how in Rise" (JUNE SARPONG)
"A story of optimism and courage, which should inspire . . . and also shame those who preached freedom but showed intolerance" (ALAN RUSBRIDGER)
"Gina Miller's wisdom and courage has revealed the truth in an historic battle for democracy – reading her life story in Rise makes me admire her more than ever" (VANESSA REDGRAVE)
"Gina Miller’s book reflects the extraordinary woman she is – strong, resourceful, principled and brilliant – a heroine for our times" (BARONESS HELENA KENNEDY, QC)

This book has been instrumental in finding myself whilst digging deep to realise my potential. Gina is a fantastic and truly fascinating woman, who has transcended difficulty and still risen despite the challenges thrown her way. I marvel at how she comes across as quite childlike in her outlook on life and hope for humanity.

Thank you for all you have done, for fighting the bullies and sacrificing your time and safety for the whole of Britain.

You are a HERO. How anyone can dislike you is beyond my comprehension. I have fallen in love with your strength, determination and composure.

We must all continue to speak our truth and stand our grounds firmly, by doing this the bullies of the world will surely go into remission.

No more silence!

Phenomenal Woman! A must read/ listen.

Gina gives us all the answers to why someone would put themselves through some of the vitriol we often heard thrown at her. We get a real sense of how her character was built and honed from childhood to now. We get to understand more of where her moral compass lays, the trials she has overcome and why she is not afraid to fight for what she believes to be right. Well worth the read / listen.

An interesting delve into the woman behind the headlines

I recently heard Gina Miller on a podcast and I thought ... wow... I must listen to her story.
Her story is inspirational, she’s one principled lady and I enjoyed finding out more about her. She is a lady of our time. I was appalled to hear about the vitriol poured upon her and in awe of her strength of character.

The narration was not brilliant ... but I still listened and that shows the quality of the story. I’m pretty sure that in a few years Gina will do another autobiography and I’d love to hear more about how she succeed in her early years.

A lady of our time
