Book Reviews of Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, a Man Who Would Cure the World
Book Review: Truly inspiring
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. Paul Farmer is one person I would love to meet. He has become a hero to us here at BioImmersion. I highly recommend reading his book as it will inspire you to have faith again: Good people do indeed exist and are working hard to alleviate suffering, and that you can also become one, helping and inspiring the world in your own way. The book is not only for people in the health and medical arenas but also for anyone who has eyes to see suffering and a heart willing to hear a call. A must read.

Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, a Man Who Would Cure the World
Book Review: Mandatory reading for any thoughtful person
Summary: 5 Stars
Truly a life changing book. It illustrates how each of us, as individuals, need not be paralyzed by the magnitude of the disparities and injustices that exist in the world. In a subtle, non-preachy way, it conveys the message of the old Nike ad: Just do it. Book Review: Best book ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. Paul Farmer is a phenomenal man, and this book lays out all of the wonderful things he has done, as well as his ideologies, which are primarily based on Catholic Social teaching. Great book, everyone should read it.Book Review: Mountains beyond Mountains
Summary: 3 Stars
Interesting book, learned many things about strife in Haiti, medical woes and one persons fight against TB. Book was a bit repetitious, could have been shorter and still gotten the meaning/message across. Book Review: Dr. Farmer the miracle man
Summary: 5 Stars
This book has to be one of the best books I have ever read, its amazing and inspiring how Dr. Farmer makes a different single handily taking on TB and poverty. Its a great, easy read that will have you keep going back to the book to follow Farmers works in Haiti, Peru and Russia. Along with his personal life, the author does a good job of telling the amazing story of Dr. Farmer and his friends in a very detailed story that keeps you entertained. It must read for anyone that is going to be a doctor or just someone that wants to know how to make a difference in the world, no matter how big or small.
