Hearts Exposed: Transplants and the Media in 1960s Britain - Science, Technology and Medicine in Modern History
A. Nathoo
This book examines the relationship between medicine and the media in 1960's Britain, when the first wave of heart transplants were as much media as medical events and marked a decisive period in post-war history. Public trust in their doctors was significantly undermined, and medicine was held publicly to account as never before.
