I recently picked up The Exquisite Machine: The New Science of the Heart by Sian Harding, which turned out to be fascinating. Harding, an expert in heart research, explains how our heart works and the latest scientific advancements that are helping us understand it better.

Overall, it is a super interesting book that makes complex science easy to understand. If you are curious about how your heart works and want to know about the latest research, try this one!
