Human Heart, Cosmic Heart: A Doctor's Quest to Understand, Treat, and Prevent Cardiovascular Disease by Dr. Thomas Cowan

This remarkable book outlines with warmth, clarity and rigorous thinking:

• A new understanding of the role of the heart in the human body
• The connection between the heart and gold
• The connection between the heart and love
• The true cause of heart disease and how to prevent and treat it

"This book blew my mind. I will admit . . . I thought I was simply going to be reading an interesting memoir of a good physician. Instead, I discovered the most groundbreaking, unorthodox, outside-the-box treatise on the heart I have ever stumbled upon. If you have a heart and you want to live a long time, you must, must read this book."

 

–Ben Greenfield, author of the New York Times bestseller

"What happens when the medical profession views the heart as a mechanical pump? We get ghoulish surgeries, medications with horrible side effects, and soulless low-fat diets. Tom Cowan asks us to look anew at the heart; first step is the demonstration that the blood pumps the heart, not vice versa. From this observation comes a way of treating heart disease that is more effective, more gentle, more felicitate than conventional protocol. Part biography, part wisdom, part practical advice, ‘Human Heart, Cosmic Heart’ will change the way you look at the process of healing and the miraculous world of the human body.”
