Gavin Francis (2018 Event)

Following the resounding success of the bestselling Adventures in
Human Being, Edinburgh-based GP and writer Gavin Francis turns
his attention to Shapeshifters or more specifically, the ways in
which human bodies are transformed throughout a lifetime. Changes
happen in many different contexts: ageing, transgender journeys
and plastic surgery being some topical examples that Francis
analyses in his new book. This event was recorded at the 2018
Edinburgh International Book Festival and is chaired by Allan
Little.
