He investigates the interplay between the heart depictions of successive eras and the prevailing cultural discourse religious social philosophical of each. In parallel he considers how the scientific understanding of the function of the heart has unfolded over 2,500 years from the observations of Aristotle through detailed anatomical descriptions beginning in the Renaissance to the emergence of experimental physiology in the seventeenth century culminating in the twentieth in full understanding of the molecular and cellular processes by which the heart beats autonomously. The Beating Heart is a beautifully illustrated journey of discovery across four millennia of human history in the company of an author whose medical knowledge of the heart is matched by his fascination with the visual arts.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: The Beating Heart The Art And Science Of Our Most Vital Organ\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Choudhury Robin\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing Plc\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781837931767\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 304 Pages, 90 Integrated Colour And Bw Images\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 7\/8\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Cardiovascular Medicine","brand":"Choudhury Robin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541548237105,"sku":"IN-G-9781837931767","price":43.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781837931767-the-beating-heart-the-art-and-science-of-our-most-vital-organ","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
