RSM In Conversation Live with Tom Holland

Recorded on Wednesday 6 October 2021 as part of The Royal Society of Medicine's In Conversation Live series.
Award-winning historian, biographer and broadcaster, Tom Holland, joins Professor Sir Simon Wessely, RSM immediate Past-President, for a conversation about his career, and how he came to write his recent book Dominion: The Making of the Western Mind, which has been hugely praised, and described as “completely transforms your understanding of the world”. Tom also speaks about his process and research when writing historically correct biographies, and how historical pandemics compare to COVID-19.

Much obliged for putting order in the anturage.
Farther than this can not go any human. Respect your family as I love mine and selfish as always. Applaus is only after death, this is why I am so selfish.
God help you.
with friendship, bonded by past only, Corina Ijac
