From the author of Why We Get the Wrong Politicians, a gripping,
provocative exploration of the NHS, told through the most critical
moments in its 75-year history 'The book the NHS has always
deserved' Andrew Marr 'Funny, intelligent and so beautifully
written . . . a much-needed book' Chris van Tulleken 'Brilliant'
Adam Kay ________________ Since its foundation in 1948, the NHS has
come to define our national identity; it even topped the "what
makes Britain great" poll in 2022. It has made history (and the
headlines) again and again - from cutting edge discoveries like the
first 'test tube baby', to its heroic response to the Coronavirus
crisis. But the NHS has also become a battleground for some of the
fiercest political contests of our time, perceived either as a
national treasure, or as a lumbering piece of state machinery in
need of renovation. In Fighting for Life, bestselling journalist
Isabel Hardman cuts through the sentimentality and sloganeering on
all sides of the political spectrum. Packed with gripping stories
from the people at the beating heart of this venerated institution
- its nurses, its doctors, its patients and the politicians who
decide its fate - this is the essential book for understanding our
NHS, and who we are as a nation.
