Recovery : the lost art of convalescence

Francis, Gavin

Recovery : the lost art of convalescence - London : Profile Books, 2022 - xii, 127p

When it comes to illness, sometimes the end is just the beginning. Recovery and convalescence are words that exist at the periphery of our lives - until we are forced to contend with what they really mean. Here, GP and writer Gavin Francis explores how - and why - we get better, revealing the many shapes recovery takes, its shifting history and the frequent failure of our modern lives to make adequate space for it.
