Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This physician's true stories carry the reader from his roots in rural America into a turbulent Congo devastated by dictator Mobutu's excesses; into refugee camps on Cambodia's border, a Cambodia ravaged by dictator Pol Pot; into the Artibonite Valley beside Haitian peasants victimized by dictator Baby Doc Duvalier's bungling; and into an interlude working with the Lakota, Chippewa, and Quinault Tribes of Native Americans. Medical Doctor Jim Fett says, "I want the reader to garner a sense of sharing and searching in the lives and stories of these persons who deal with victory and defeat, life and death, healing and hope"
