Description
A profound and provocative journey through the human body. 'Gripping...bold, humane' Guardian 'Sings from the page' Rachel Clarke For Gabriel Weston, there was always something missing from the anatomy she was taught at medical school. As she became a surgeon, a mother and then a patient herself, she grew increasingly fascinated by the gap between the body she understood as a doctor and the messy reality of living in one. Alive is a captivating investigation into our organs and the role they play in the stories of our lives. In Weston's hands, a fuller and more human picture of our bodies emerges - more fragile, frightening and miraculous than we could ever have imagined. 'An exceptional, absorbing tour of human life and bodies' Chris van Tulleken 'Filled with fascinating facts' Daily Telegraph 'A pitch-perfect book' Christie Watson 'A book of wonder' Sarah Moss
