Are you just surviving-or are you still truly living?
In the most devastating conditions of the twenty-first century, when everything around you is designed to break you, one question remains:
How do you keep going?
Learning Under Fire is the true story of Majeda Ramadan-a mathematics teacher from Beit Lahia, northern Gaza-and her family of seven who lost all three of their homes, walked ten kilometres during a ceasefire just to see their daughter, and watched a young woman become a doctor through seven years of war.
This is not a book about despair.
This is a book about what happens when a person decides-every single morning-not to give up.
Inside this book, you'll discover:
- The complete story-from a warm life in Gaza to displacement and the unbreakable decision to continue
- The day Majeda completely broke down in Rafah-and the five people who brought her back
- Hind's story-seven years studying dentistry through war until: Dr. Hind
- How Majeda taught mathematics in neighbouring tents-because education does not wait
- The mindset of resilience-four real mental rules lived under fire
- Education after trauma-specialist strategies from Queen's University Belfast
- How to raise resilient children in the age of social media and AI
- A final letter to the world-for every parent, teacher, and human being

"On this earth is what makes life worth living."

More than a book. A testimony, a toolkit, and a letter to every human being asking: How do I keep going?
