Wet Engine: Exploring the Mad Wild Miracle of the Heart
Brian Doyle
Examines the heart as a physical organ - how it is supposed to work, how surgeons try to fix it when it doesn’t - and as a metaphor: the seat of the soul, the power house of the body, the essence of spirituality. Brian Doyle considers the scientific, emotional, literary, philosophical, and spiritual understandings of the heart - from cardiology to courage, from love letters and pop songs to Jesus.
