In a series of profoundly moving ruminations, Doyle considers the scientific, emotional, literary, philosophical, and spiritual understandings of the heart—from cardiology to courage, from love letters and pop songs to botany and Jesus. Weaving these strands together is the torment of Doyle’s own infant son’s heart surgery and the inspiring story of the young heart doctor who saved Liam’s life.First published in 2005, The Wet Engineis a book that will change how you feel and think about the mysterious, fragile human heart. This new paperback edition includes a foreword by Dr. Marla Salmon, dean of the University of Washington School of Nursing.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USAuthor: Brian DoyleGenre: Society & CultureItem Weight: 160gTopic: Parenting, Philosophy & SpiritualityRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
