The Test Author: Brian O'Driscoll

ISBN: 9780241962688 Format: Paperback Number Of Pages: 416 Published: 27 May 2015 Country of Publication: GB Dimensions (cm): 19.8 x 12.9 x 2.6 Description: Between 1999, when he made his international debut, and his retirement in 2014, there was no greater player in world rugby than Brian O'Driscoll.

Along the way, he was tested - by personal loss, off-the-field pressures, career-threatening injuries. The Test is a book about how he took on those challenges - how a world-class talent developed a world-class work ethic and temperament - and, in the latter stages of his career, reinvented himself as a player. It is packed with vivid insights into his own game, and into his coaches and teammates with Ireland, Leinster and the Lions. At the same time, it is the story of a complicated human being forging his own identity in the public eye.

Honest, gritty and thoughtful, The Test is not just an essential sports book. It is an essential book about family, friends, hard work, courage and imagination.
