Book - Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, by Tracy Kidder

Paperback, 335 pages, published 2004. Includes a Reader's Circle section in the back. Author Tracy Kidder has won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, and many other literary prizes. This copy is in very good used condition, gently read. Minor cosmetic wear, one dog-ear, and a very slight bend in the book (see all pics), but the binding is tight and all pages are intact. No writing, no highlights. "In medical school, Paul Farmer found his life’s calling: to cure infectious diseases, and to bring the lifesaving tools of modern medicine to those who need them most. Tracy Kidder’s account of Farmer shows how one person can make a difference in solving global health problems, through a clear-eyed understanding of the interaction of politics, wealth, social systems, and disease. Profound and powerful, Mountains Beyond Mountains takes us from Harvard to Haiti, Peru, Cuba, and Russia, as Farmer changes people’s minds through his dedication to a philosophy: that the only real nation is humanity." 🌈🌍 ⚕️💞
