ā€œIf any one person can be given credit for transforming the medical establishmentā€™s thinking about health care for the destitute, it is Paul Farmer. . . . [Mountains Beyond Mountains] inspires, discomforts, and provokes.ā€ā€”The New York Times (Best Books of the Year)

In medical school, Paul Farmer found his lifeā€™s calling: to cure infectious diseases and to bring the lifesaving tools of modern medicine to those who need them most. Tracy Kidderā€™s magnificent account 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 peopleā€™s minds through his dedication to the philosophy that ā€œthe only real nation is humanity.ā€
