Rezensionen

A wonderful series of meditations - clinical, anthropological, literary and deeply humane - on his patients and their illnesses. Henry Marsh

Stylish and exhilarating... from a wide-ranging mind and a profound humanity. With warmth and wit, Gavin Francis examines the body's strategies for survival and change, embedding his thoughts in a broad frame of reference from across human culture and history. Each piece is a pleasure to read, and in sum they are inspiring. Hilary Mantel
