A profound and provocative journey through the human body
'Bold, humane yet unsettling' GUARDIAN
'Gripping and lyrical' TELEGRAPH
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 ultimately a patient herself, she found herself grappling with the gap between the body she understood as a doctor, and the reality of living in one.
In this captivating exploration of our bodily organs, a fuller and more human picture of our bodies emerges: more fragile, frightening and miraculous than we could have imagined.
'Exceptional, beautiful and absolutely absorbing . . . ALIVE is essential reading if you own a body' CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN
