Question: What makes the human heart unique? While it was beyond our understanding for millenia, with advances in science we've now got a better understanding. Author and cardiologist Sandeep Jauhar uses both historical episodes and examples from his own life to tell a story that's closer to the heart. From the first open heart surgery to the invention of the pacemaker is discussed, but also considered the limits of medical technology. In the future, as now, our health will depend more on the choices we make rather than the technology we develop. Answer: the heart is the only organ that can move itself.(This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
