Mountains Beyond Mountains: Ch. 1-5 Response Paper

After reading part I of your book, Mountains Beyond Mountains, respond to one of the following prompts. Response guidelines:

  • One page double spaced Times New Roman 12 pt font.  
  • Contains a developed thesis statement 
  • Fully and thoughtfully answers all parts of the prompt.  
  • Indicate your chosen prompt on your paper.  
  • Due: Monday February 17th

      1.  Compare and contrast the opening images of chapter two with those in chapter three. Why do you think Kidder set up the opening of the chapters in this way? What significance does this comparison have for understanding Farmer’s mission?


            2.  Compare and contrast the items on Farmer’s checklist in chapter three with your ideas of a “normal”    doctor’s duties and responsibilities. How does this checklist help you to better understand Farmer’s approach to medicine?
