Mary Roach Quote

To Huang Ti’s credit, though, he managed, without ever disassembling a corpse, to figure out that the blood of the body is under the control of the heart and that the blood current flows in a continuous circle and never stops. In other words, the man figured out what William Harvey figured out, four thousand years before Harvey and without laying open any family members.
