The facemaker : one surgeon's battle to mend the disfigured soldiers of World War I (engelsk)


Beskrivelse


Lindsey Fitzharris tells the story of the pioneering plastic surgeon Harold Gillies, who dedicated himself to restoring the faces - and the identities - of a brutalized generation. Returning to Britain, he established one of the world's first hospitals dedicated entirely to facial reconstruction in Sidcup, south-east England.
