But nothing could prepare Jim and his colleagues for the events of spring 2020, when the Covid-19 pandemic put them on the frontline of a global health crisis.\nIn Life Support, Jim tells the extraordinary month-by-month story of how, as the world came to a standstill, he and his co-workers faced down the biggest challenge in the history of the NHS. Full of warmth, honesty and humour, this book is a gripping and moving testament to the everyday heroism of the NHS staff in a global emergency, and an unforgettable insight into what was really happening on the wards as we clapped on our doorsteps.","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51220500316448,"sku":"9780241506325","price":9.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9780241506325.jpg?v=1770627949","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/life-support-dr-jim-down-9780241506325","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
