Mountains Beyond Mountains by Tracy Kidder
4.0

Partners in Health is one of my favorite charities, so I really enjoyed learning about its origins and more details of the good work Dr Farmer and his following have done. This book is almost 20 years old, so I'll have to do some more research now to fill in the time since then and complete the picture. Dr Farmer is an inspiration but also a bit of a madman, which is often true to people that really manage to make big changes in the world. He has created a great force for good and I add him to my list of idols, even if I' would never want to be him.
