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.

Recensioni della critica

"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)
