"The idea that some lives matter less is the root of all that's wrong in the world"
--Dr. Paul Farmer, founder Partners in Health



Your assigned book this semester, Mountains Beyond Mountains, takes you along a journey with Dr. Paul Farmer as he seeks to alleviate the suffering in Haiti. To better understand his mission of "providing a preferential option for the poor in health care" spend some time looking through his organization's website Partners in Health.
