San Francisco's Laguna Honda Hospital is the last almshouse in the country, a descendant of the Hôtel-Dieu (God's hotel) that cared for the sick in the Middle Ages.

So did Victoria Sweet, who came for two months and stayed for 20 years. Laguna Honda, lower-tech but human-paced, gave Sweet the opportunity to practice a kind of attentive medicine that has almost vanished.

Medicine for the Heart is a guide to the extraordinary richness of Scripture seen through Kierkegaard's eyes. He wrote about Scripture as none other, a literature of surpassing artistry and rare moral power. Kierkegaard described a new believer who discovered that life was beautiful, that it was a new gloriousness of faith that no human being can give to another, but that every human being has what is highest, noblest, and most sacred in humankind. It is original in him, and every human being has it if he wants to have it.

For centuries, the human heart seemed beyond our understanding: an inscrutable shuddering mass that was somehow the driver of emotion and the seat of the soul. As cardiologist and best-selling author Sandeep Jauhar tells in The Heart, it was only recently that we demolished age-old taboos and devised the transformative procedures that changed the way we live.

When you have heart disease or COPD, your heart does not pump as well as it should. So it does not send enough oxygen-rich blood to the rest of your body. Thus the other cells of your body are deprived of enough oxygen-laden blood to supply their needs. Since your body cells are now trying to get by on less blood, it is critical and imperative that the blood that they do supply carries as much oxygen as possible. Oxygen therapy increases the amount of oxygen sent to your body's tissues. This helps reduce your heart's workload. It can help you breathe easier and let you do more. We are going...
