Life And How To Survive It

Brilliantly entertaining, enlightening and inspiring, Robin Skynner and John Cleese take on the big issue: life, and the challenge of living, in all its myriad forms. This book is an essential guide to surviving life's ups and downs - at home or in the workplace, as a member of a family or society.

Presented in the same lively style as the best-selling Families and How to Survive Them, Life extends Skynner's and Cleese's study beyond the family to relationships and group interaction in life outside it. The book deals with such pithy issues as:

-Why life gives you all the lessons you need

-How grief can be good for you

-Why work is essential to our psychological health

-What mid-life crisis means for you

We are all searching for healthier, happier, more satisfying lives, but it's the journey that matters, not the destination. Skynner and Cleese are the perfect travelling companions.

Reviews

Breathtaking. . . On every page of Life and How to Survive It you will find insights that will cut straight to the heart of your own life

—— Daily Mail

Hutchinson means what he says about demystifying his subject - by the biography's end there's not a stone left unturned

—— The Scotsman

A level-headed reappraisal of a man whose fantasies were fuelled as much by self-publicity as by any real demonic contact

—— Scotland on Sunday

Well informed and cool-headed . . . one can see that Crowley's own words would be of little use in conveying the facts of his life, which Hutchinson does admirably

—— New York Times
