About Dr Sandeep Jauhar
Dr Sandeep Jauhar is a US cardiologist and writer for The New York Times. He has written three books. His most recent, Heart: A History, is beautifully written and tells the colourful history of the doctors who risked their careers and the patients who risked their lives for us to learn what cardiologists today know about the heart. The book was an Amazon Best Book of the Month and was the New York Times book club pick for January 2019.
As well as The New York Times, Dr Jauhar’s opinions have appeared on NPR, CNN and MSNBC, and his essays have been published in Time Magazine, The Wall Street Journal and Slate.
