For more than fifty years, Dr. Cahill has been helping to heal the
world, as a leading specialist in tropical medicine and as a
driving force in humanitarian assistance and relief efforts around
the globe. In this revised and expanded edition, he chronicles
extraordinary achievements of compassion and commitment. Bringing
together a rich selection of writings, he crafts a fascinating
memoir of a life devoted to others. The book includes front-line
reports from places under siege Lebanon, Somalia, Sudan, Nicaragua,
Gaza, and Ireland; there are also visionary essays from the origins
of the AIDS epidemic and landmine crises, and no less passionate
concerns of his own experiences of pain and suffering as well as of
joy and beauty in the worlds in which he has traveled. As the
distinguished neurologist and author Oliver Sacks, M.D., notes in
his endorsement, "These essays, by turns elegiac, lyrical, funny,
tender, nostalgic, and vehemently impassioned, come together in an
ongoing tapestry, a portrait of a dedicated physician who has dared
to make a difference."
