Book Reviews of Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, a Man Who Would Cure the World

Book Review: Inspiring personality!
Summary: 5 Stars

Kidder's account of Dr. Paul Farmer's work on curing infectious diseases among the poor inspires a renewed sense of hope that a small group, and even just one person, can truly make a difference. The commitment Dr. Farmer and others working with him have shown are truly awesome. A great read!
