New Face

A face transplant is among the most singular medical experiences a person can undergo — it touches identity in ways that other surgeries rarely approach. The writers in this collection have lived through it, and they describe what that means with a clarity that no clinical account can match.

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts move from the events that made a transplant necessary — trauma, disease, disfigurement — through the surgery and the long psychological and physical rehabilitation that follows. They address appearance, identity, rejection, and the work of learning to inhabit a face that is, in some profound sense, both theirs and not.

Who it's for

For patients navigating this path, the medical teams who support them, and anyone who wants to understand the full human dimension of this extraordinary procedure.
