{"product_id":"9780870716539","title":"Wet Engine: Exploring the Mad Wild Miracle of the Heart","description":"These profoundly moving ruminations will change how you feel and think about the mysterious, fragile, human heart.\u003cp\u003e  \"Every creature on earth has approximately two billion heartbeats to spend in a lifetime. You can spend them slowly, like a tortoise, and live to be two hundred years old, or you can spend them fast, like a hummingbird, and live to be two years old.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  The heart: it is known as the seat of the soul, the power house of the body, the essence of spirituality. No other bodily organ has so captured the imagination of human beings since the beginning of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  This startling, genuinely unique book moves like a freight train through the scientific, emotional, literary, philosophical, and spiritual understandings of the heart—from cardiology to courage, from love letters and pop songs to Jesus. The torment of Doyle's own infant son's heart surgery is the thread weaving the strands together, but the wisdom is for every person who seeks a more passionate life, in touch with the heart of God.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oregon State University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47018245587184,"sku":"9780870716539","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780870716539_p0.jpg?v=1763836888","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780870716539","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
