Two writers explore the remarkable, even jaw-dropping, lives lead by two celebrated men. In The Scientist Who Wasn’t There, Joanne Briggs explores the deception around her father, a celebrated scientist, whose activities have left a terrible legacy. In The Sleep Room Jon Stock exposes the life of Dr William Sargant whose bizarre psychiatric treatments were inflicted on hundreds of women with mental illness - among them the actor Celia Imrie. Why weren't they stopped?
