Title: The test
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.
