I bought this book for an (adult) niece who is traveling to Uganda on a health mission. She loved it. So many of the stories we hear out of Africa today are of human misery and suffering, and of course we must read those to become more knowledgable about the terrible needs and poverty there. But it is also necessary to fight feelings of hopelessness, and this book does that. There are things that can be done, there are people who struggle to rise above their circumstances and live to make an inspiring difference. If you are discouraged about Africa, this book will change your mind.
Book is in great condition , can't complain!
I had the opportunity to hear Dr. Barz speak to one of my classes this semester, and we read a chapter of this book before it was released. He is an amazing person who is so immersed in his work. He is passionate and incredibly intelligent. His book is compelling and really is a great way to see how Uganda has turned the tide on AIDS. It is great to see the way that Western traditions were abandoned and with great success!
