Robert West was born in 1960 in Shoreditch, London and was brought up as the youngest of five boys by his mother after his father died when Robert was just seven years old. An interest in the arts began by going along to Hoxton Hall in the 1970s and his experiences at this arts and community centre encouraged him to decide to try and build a career in the industry. Following training at Rose Bruford College of Speech & Drama Robert went on to work professionally as an actor, writer, and director. Though his other roles, which have included paid work as a Children’s Entertainer, Football Coach and Creative Writing Tutor, have all provided as much excitement as the stage ever has. Like many others, Robert has written poems for pleasure for most of his life. Here he has gathered up the various scraps of paper and notebooks on which his poems have been written over the years and brought them all together in this anthology of his work. Each poem is accompanied by a short insight into the work. Robert has always sought to encourage others to have a go at things they might feel as being out of their reach. He hopes that this collection of poetry may encourage people to have a go at whatever they feel inspired to do. As Samuel Beckett once said, ‘Try again. Fail again. Fail better’.

ARRÊTER LE TABAC... ET CHANGER DE VIE. Peut-on en finir avec le tabac ? Alors que la France compte près de 16 millions de fumeurs, plus de la moitié déclarent avoir envie d’arrêter de fumer. Mais comment y parvenir ? Et surtout, comment éviter la rechute ? Le professeur Robert West part d’un double constat : pour en finir avec le tabac, le fumeur doit d’abord connaître les méthodes qui fonctionnent réellement puis trouver, parmi elles, celle qui répond à son type de dépendance. Ce guide présente ainsi toutes les techniques, validées scientifiquement, pour cesser de fumer (patchs, hypnose, cigarette électronique, coaching...). À l’aide de questionnaires et de conseils personnalisés, il oriente ensuite chaque fumeur vers la méthode qui lui convient, ou suggère d’en combiner plusieurs, pour arrêter de fumer « sur mesure ». Psychologue, Robert West se consacre depuis plus de trente ans aux problèmes de dépendance tabagique. Directeur des études sur le tabac au Centre britannique de recherches sur le cancer, il est également éditeur scientifique au sein de la revue Addiction.

"Addiction is a global problem that costs many millions of lives each year and causes untold suffering. It can involve ingesting licit and illicit psychoactive drugs (e.g. alcohol, nicotine, opioids, stimulants, steroids, prescription painkillers, sedatives or cannabis) or other kinds of activity (e.g. gambling, computer gaming). The science of addiction has advanced to a point at which it is timely to examine the wide range of underlying mechanisms that have been identified and assess what these imply for the development of a comprehensive strategy for combating the problem. This report reviews theories of addiction that have been proposed, with a view to generating an overarching framework or model that captures all the main elements. It then examines how this model can be applied in assessment, prevention and treatment."--Editor.
