Stories of courage and conviction from the environmental frontline

'This book is a powerful reminder that the arc of the moral universe bends towards justice only if brave people make the effort to bend it.' —Geraldine Brooks

For half a century, Bob Brown has been standing up to the powerful interests who would put profit before planet.

In Defiance, he draws on this experience to inspire a new generation of individual and collective action. He reflects on the people and places that have shaped him, celebrates the irreplaceable beauty and value of nature and shares what motivates him to keep fighting. He considers the challenges facing nature's defenders - hostile corporate lobbyists, vilification in the press, the powerful pull of consumerism - and shows how courage, persistence and community can defeat them all.

Told with Brown's trademark warmth and humour, these stories will galvanise, uplift and inspire.

With a foreword by Geraldine Brooks.

'Our unifying purpose ought to be safeguarding life on earth, honouring happiness and securing humanity for its future in the universe. This simple and obvious pursuit, far ahead of money, offers us meaning to life on our brilliant little planet.'—Bob Brown
