Reviews
In Jennie Block's beautiful book, she illuminates Paul Farmer's life as one driven by a deep anger at deadly injustices and an equally deep conviction that imagination and commitment can make the future healthier, more just and more equal. In these pages, Jennie elucidates how closely linked Paul's faith is to both his anger and his hope. Paul Farmer: Servant to the Poor is a timely and timeless inspirational read about how and why one man has never relinquished his belief that the world can be better, while along the way saving and improving countless lives. Dr. Chelsea Clinton, Vice Chair, Clinton Foundation

Synopsis
Bill Gates has called Paul Farmer one of the most amazing people he has ever met. CNN medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta says that "if pure altruism exists in humans, it probably looks a lot like Dr. Paul Farmer." In Paul Farmer, Servant to the Poor , Jennie Weiss Block introduces readers to this physician and medical anthropologist of international stature whose Catholic faith has driven him to work untiringly to make a preferential option for the poor in health care. Farmer, with his colleagues at Harvard University and Partners in Health, has been instrumental in bringing the fruits of modern medicine to millions of the poorest people in the world, in places like Haiti, Rwanda, Peru, Russia, Malawi, and West Africa during the recent Ebola crisis. Challenging the conventional wisdom of global health experts, Dr. Farmer has shown it is possible to deliver high-quality medical care on a large scale to settings of great poverty and to build communities around the globe where good health and hope prevail., Bill Gates has called Paul Farmer one of the most amazing people he has ever met.
