520 Former Vice President Dick Cheney and his longtime
cardiologist, Dr. Jonathan Reiner, share the story of
Cheney's thirty-five-year battle with heart disease-
providing insight into the incredible medical
breakthroughs that have changed cardiac care over the last
four decades. For as long as he has served at the highest
levels of business and government, Vice President Dick
Cheney has also been one of the world's most prominent
heart patients. Now, for the first time ever, Cheney,
together with his longtime cardiologist, Jonathan Reiner,
MD, shares the very personal story of his courageous
thirty-five-year battle with heart disease, from his first
heart attack in 1978 to the heart transplant he received
in 2012. In 1978, when Cheney suffered his first heart
attack, he received essentially the same treatment
President Eisenhower had had in 1955. Since then, cardiac
medicine has been revolutionized, and Cheney has
benefitted from nearly every medical breakthrough. At each
juncture, when Cheney faced a new health challenge, the
technology was one step ahead of his disease. Cheney's
story is in many ways the story of the evolution of modern
cardiac care. Heart is the riveting, singular memoir of
both doctor and patient. Like no US politician has before
him, Cheney opens up about his health struggles, sharing
harrowing, never-before-told stories about the challenges
he faced during a perilous time in our nation's history.
Dr. Reiner provides his perspective on Cheney's case and
also gives readers a fascinating glimpse into his own
education as a doctor and the history of our understanding
of the human heart. He masterfully chronicles the
important discoveries, radical innovations, and cutting-
edge science that have changed the face of medicine and
saved countless lives. Powerfully braiding science with
story and the personal with the political, Heart is a
sweeping, inspiring, and ultimately optimistic book that
will give hope to the millions of Americans affected by
heart disease.
