Rachel is a palliative care doctor who looked after some of the most gravely unwell patients on the COVID-19 wards of her hospital.

Her new book, Breathtaking, is an unflinching insider's account of medicine in the time of coronavirus.

This is a powerful polemic on its systematic degradation and a letter of optimism to that same health service and those who support it. It captures with tenderness a new doctor's experiences of an NHS at breaking point.

Christina Anstead, star of HGTV's Flip or Flop and Christina on the Coast, is known for her boundless energy, positive attitude, and radiant looks. But what was hidden from fans of her popular television shows was a very real health crisis, including a diagnosis of autoimmune disease, infertility, and the emotional and physical exhaustion of going through a divorce with two young children - all in the public eye.
