The Sublime Engine: A Biography of the Human Heart
Stephen Amidon, Novelist, Essayist, Critic
Thomas Amidon, M.D., Cardiologist in Kalispell, Montana
Host: David Inge

It is also the source of a vast supply of stories, reflecting the fact that it has long been a central image for describing those qualities that make us human. We’ll sample some of these stories as we talk with novelist Stephen Amidon and cardiologist Thomas Amidon, authors of "The Sublime Engine."
