A FINALIST FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING 2023 'A vital call to action' LEAH HAZARD 'Prepare to be blown away' CHIKWE IHEKWEAZU, Assistant Director General at WHO In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, we are all too aware of the urgent health inequalities that plague our world.

Tackling systemic racism, hidden histories and healthcare myths, Sowemimo recounts her own experiences as a doctor, patient and activist. Divided exposes the racial biases of medicine that affect our everyday lives and provides an illuminating - and incredibly necessary - insight into how our world works, and who it works for. This book will reshape how we see health and medicine - forever.
