The Matter of the Heart: A History of the Heart in Eleven Operations by Thomas Morris

4.0

Really interesting history of surgery with a good side of medical ethics and the stories of the unsung patients, surgeons and researchers that made major breakthroughs happen. The chronology can get a bit confusing with many stories being interwoven. This can make it a bit difficult to keep track of all of the people. And I would recommend going back to the front pictures to be able to get a better visual for each of the parts of the heart that he talks about.
