Paul Farmer Has Helped To Build Amazing Health Care System In One Of The Poorest Areas Of Haiti. He Founded Partners In Health, Which Serves The Destitute And The Sick In Many Parts Of The World From Haiti To Boston And From Russia To Peru.

I Usually Write About Ordinary People And Ordinary Things, But Paul Farmer Is The Least Ordinary Person I've Ever Met... He's The Leader Of A Small Group Of People Who Hope To Cure A Sick World, And I Hope My Book Can Help In Some Small Way.
