This Alastair Campbell collection brings together But What Can I Do?, Living Better, and Persevilience: The Word the World Needs Now, spanning politics, mental health, and personal resilience.

These three brand new books make a thoughtful, substantial gift set for readers who enjoy political commentary paired with honest memoir and practical life guidance.
About the Books
This collection gathers three distinct but complementary works, each tackling a different facet of modern life through Alastair Campbell's direct voice. But What Can I Do? is a rallying call for citizens who feel shut out of politics, arguing that democracy only works when ordinary people engage with it rather than leave it to those in power. Campbell draws on his own experience at the heart of government to argue that disillusionment is not an option.
Living Better turns inward, offering an honest account of Campbell's lifelong struggle with depression, examining how childhood, family, and relationships shape psychological wellbeing. Campbell has spoken openly about mental illness for years, and this book distills that advocacy into a personal account meant to help readers understand their own struggles or those of people they love.
Persevilience closes the set with a coined concept blending perseverance and resilience into a single idea for navigating uncertain times, arguing that getting through modern crises demands an active, adaptable mindset rather than simple endurance.
