A pioneer in the field of burns and reconstructive surgery, Fiona made world headlines with the use of her groundbreaking invention of spray-on skin to help minimize her patients' terrible scarring. Fiona was later made Australian of the Year, voted Australia's Most Trusted Person for an unprecedented six years running in the annual Reader's Digest poll, and acclaimed as a National Living Treasure. This is the story of her extraordinary life. Against all the odds, Fiona, the daughter of a fifth-generation coal miner in the north of England, became one of Australia's most innovative, respected, and dedicated surgeons and researchers. She talks candidly of the moving valor of her burns patients, and the heartbreak, triumph, tears, and controversies that have stalked her stellar career. Remarkably, she has achieved all of this while raising six children. In Under Her Skin, Sue Williams, a bestselling author and award-winning journalist who has written a number of biographies, most notably about Father Chris Riley, Father Bob Maguire, and Dr. Catherine Hamlin, presents a searingly honest, no-holds-barred account of all aspects of Fiona Wood's remarkable life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 510g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 153 x 29 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781761066917\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sue Williams","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44614385533178,"sku":"9781761066917","price":12.43,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1696611484804_book.jpg?v=1696766973","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/under-her-skin-the-life-and-work-of-professor-fiona-wood-am-national-living-treasure-9781761066917","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
