      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.

      I was so thrilled to see that this book is back in print. I bought it as a gift. This book has meant so much to me through many decades. Dr Paul Brand shares his thoughts about the intricacies of the human body, the joys and sorrows of being a medical doctor amongst leprosy sufferers in India. The accounts are fascinating, intellectually stimulating and spiritually inspiring.

      Philip Yancey, journalist, bestselling writer, and popular speaker whose books have sold over 16 million copies in English and have been translated into thirty-eight languages, is known for his honest, thoughtful explorations of Christianity, especially amid questions and struggles of felt experience and ironies in its institutional expressions. He has become a trusted companion to his loyal readers in the search for an authentic and life-giving spiritual path, and the high quality of his writing craft across decades of award-winning books has secured his place among contemporary Christian writers who are contributing to the classic literature of faith.
