"Paul Farmer, doctor and aid worker, offers an inspiring insider's view of the relief effort."-Financial Times "The book's greatest strength lies in its depiction of the post-quake chaos... In the book's more analytical sections the author's diagnosis of the difficulties of reconstruction is sharp." -Economist "A gripping, profoundly moving book, an urgent dispatch from the front by one of our finest warriors for social justice." -Adam Hochschild "His honest assessment of what the people trying to help Haiti did well-and where they failed-is important for anyone who cares about the country or international aid in general." -Miami Herald
