		Logan says that the South African surgeon was so keen to win the transplant "race" that he wanted to stop Denise Darvall's heart artificially after she had been critically injured in a car crash and was surviving on a ventilator.
		The book discloses that Terry O'Donovan, who was monitoring the patient's electrocardiograph (ECG) machine, wrote years later that he was not prepared to go along with Prof Barnard's wish to remove the heart before it had stopped beating and the patient was officially dead.
		In fact, Miss Darvall's heart stopped beating naturally soon afterwards and was still in a good enough condition to be used.
