Cowboys and Bleeding Hearts: Essays on Violence, Health and Identity

In this, his first collection of essays, Charach has gathered together essays that address the issues that keep him up at night, as a person and as a doctor. From a dark tallying up of the human toll of gun violence, to a more nuanced consideration of Jewish identity, along with a sprinkling of more humorous treatments of serious issues, this is an arresting and thought-provoking collection.
