An inspiring book for our challenging times' Olivia ColemanNurses have never been more important.We benefit from their expertise in our hospitals and beyond: in our schools, on our streets, in prisons, hospices and care homes.

Simone de Beavoir describes her early life, from her birth in Paris in 1908 to her student days at the Sorbonne, where she met Jean-Paul sartre - 'the dream-companion I had longed for since I was fifteen'.
