Heart: A History by Sandeep Jauhar

 





by




On my way home from a client visit this pm I finished up listening to the audio book rendition of Heart: A History by Sandeep Jauhar.   I enjoy medical history in general and this book did not disappoint me.   Although some of the history was early history much of our history making progress in care of our hearts has taken place in the last 75 years.  Therefore a great of the history covered in the book was pretty recent events.   It was very interesting to hear about the pioneers in this field.  Especially the men who risked their own health in the early to mid 1900s.  The author includes his own personal experience in his book as he is a cardiologist with a family history of heart disease.  He is able to explain complicated anatomy and physiology in easy to understand language.  So if the reader is interested in learning more about the heart this book is a great place to start.  Please click on the book title and author's name above to follow the links to more information.  And enjoy the video that follows.
