Author and columnist Oliver Burkeman has 'The Antidote', and he wishes to share his refreshing perspective on leading a happy life with you!

Oliver will share the insights from his new book The Antidote, which explains why embracing the negative aspects of life may in fact be essential for our happiness. It's a fascinating and counter-intuitive message that turns self-help advice on its head and forces us to rethink our attitudes towards failure, uncertainty and death.

Oliver writes This Column Will Change Your Life in The Guardian, where he regularly investigates social psychology, self-help culture and the science of happiness. His new book The Antidote will be in the shops from 21 June, but exclusive advance copies will be available at this event.

His previous book HELP!: How to Become Slightly Happier and Get a Bit More Done is a witty and thought-provoking exploration of the world of self-help books, which aims to sort out the good ideas from the terrible ones.
