'Munjed Al Muderis's bestselling memoir Walking Free described his experience as a refugee fleeing Saddam Hussein's Iraq, his terrifying sea journey and the brutal mandatory detention he faced in Australia. It also detailed his early work as a pioneering orthopaedic surgeon at the cutting edge of world medicine.

'Now Munjed shares the extraordinary journey that his lifechanging new surgical technique has taken him on. Through osseointegration, he implants titanium rods into the human skeleton and attaches robotic limbs, allowing patients genuine, effective and permanent mobility. Munjed has performed this operation on hundreds of Australian civilians, wounded British soldiers and a survivor of the Christchurch earthquake in New Zealand. But nothing has been as extraordinary as his return to Iraq at the invitation of the Iraqi government to operate on soldiers, police and civilian amputees wounded in the horrific war against ISIS. These stories are both heart-breaking and full of hope, and are told from the unique perspective of a refugee returning to the place of his birth as a celebrated international surgeon.'
