提要註:	Paul Farmer has battled AIDS in rural Haiti and deadly strains of drug-resistant tuberculosis in the slums of Peru. A physician-anthropologist with more than fifteen years in the field, Farmer writes from the front lines of the war against these modern plagues and shows why, even more than those of history, they target the poor. This moving account is far from a hopeless inventory of insoluble problems. Farmer tells us what can be done in the face of seemingly over-whelming odds, by physicians determined to treat those in need.
