Mysterious, intricate, pulsing with energy ... the human body is an
endlessly fascinating repository of incredible secrets. In this new
work, comprising two classics (Fearfully and Wonderfully Made and
In His Image) edited together and updated, renowned surgeon Dr Paul
Brand and award-winning writer Philip Yancey take us on a tour of
wonder through the human body. Illustrated with stories from Dr
Brand's ground-breaking career as a hand surgeon who changed the
lives of leprosy sufferers by transforming medical treatment
protocols, this lively narrative paints an unforgettable portrait
of the incredible unity of the human body in its trillions of
parts. As compassionate as he was brilliant, Dr Brand cared as much
about his suffering patients as he was intensely curious about how
the body works. And so just as his brilliant intuition - which led
to medical breakthroughs earning him international awards and
acclaim - makes human physiology come alive on the page, so does
his deep love for people in their dignity as image-bearers make
spirituality come alive on the page as well. Although Brand and
Yancey do not presume that readers share their Christian faith,
they trace the metaphor of 'one body, many parts' from a medical
perspective on human life as well as a mystical perspective on the
unifying presence of the Body of Christ. Filled with riveting
stories of Dr Brand's work among the marginalized and outcast, this
journey of understanding offers astonishing insights and
page-turning reading.
