Description
Each chapter in Marvelously Made focuses on a vital part of the body (the heart, the lungs, the
brain, the joints); relates an anecdote from the authorâs experience; provides reader-friendly
(i.e., not overly technical) information about the wonders of the organ or body part, and offers a
prayer and a set of âgratitude practicesââphysical and spiritual meditation exercises to deepen
the readerâs appreciation of the body.
Excerpt:
The heart works (as do all of our organs) every moment of our lives, whether we are aware
of it or not. The heart is a muscle, an extraordinary muscle with exquisite timing, which,
when disrupted, causes grave problems. Brian Doyle, a writer whose sonâs heart had
congenital malformation, writes, âIt weighs eleven ounces. It feeds a vascular system that
comprises sixty thousand miles of veins and arteries and capillaries. It beats a hundred
thousand times a day. It shoves two thousand gallons of blood through the body every
day. It begins when a fetus is three weeks old and a cluster of cells begins to pulse with
the cadence of that particular person, a music and a rhythm and a pace that will endure a
whole lifetime. No one knows why the cluster of cells begins to pulse at that time or with
that beat.â (from The Wet Engine, by Brian Doyle).
