MacDonald, Theodore
"'Splendid...thorough...balanced...astonishingly accessible...informing and inspiring. Theodore MacDonald writes with passion, as well as with sense. Much of what he has to say is drawn from his own experience working as a medical doctor and a mathematician in a broad range of the world's poorest nations. Overarching that is a powerful insight into social and economic issues, along with well honed skills as a communicator.' Desmond Tutu, in the Foreword"
