In "The Heart's Code," Paul Pearsall presents several intriguing stories of heart transplant recipients. One of the more compelling accounts involves an 18-year-old girl who received a heart from a 19-year-old male donor. After the transplant, she began craving beer and chicken nuggets—foods she previously disliked—but that were the donor's favorites. She also reported a newfound ability to play the guitar, an instrument the donor was passionate about.
