So far my absolute favourites are:
- Unwell Women by Elinor Cleghorn
- The Making of Mr Grey's Anatomy by Ruth Richardson
- Bodies, Commodities and Biotechnologies by Lesley A Sharpe
Looking to get more into this genre because I find it really interesting but I have very little background knowledge.
Particular subjects of interest: women in medicine, "taboo" infectious diseases eg leprosy, embalmment of corpses / treatment of the dead in different cultures.
(Biographies like Adam Kay's This is Going to Hurt also welcome, just forgot to put in title)
Thanks!
