An autobiographical account of forty years in the life of a British
doctor working with victims of war and exile in Israel, Lebanon and
the Occupied Territories. Runa Mackay shares her thoughts and views
of political situations such as the Six-Day War, the birth of the
Intifada, Iraq's invasion of Kuwait and the Israeli deportation of
Palestinians living in disputed territories. 'Dr Runa Mackay writes
with authority and verve about her forty years' service in Israel
and Lebanon. Her story is medically impressive, socially moving and
politically trenchant. Her faith, courage and sustained commitment
to the Palestinian cause over so many years is deeply challenging.'
Revd Dr Gordon Strachan Director, Church of Scotland Centre,
Tiberias 1987-1989 'Having lived in Galilee, in Lebanon and in the
Occupied Territories, she bears witness for Palestinians living
within that trinity - in Israel's 'Green Line', in the diaspora of
exile and under occupation ... The resilience, courage, generosity
and warmth of a nation living under extremes of wretchedness and
confronting the greatest of odds comes through in page after page
of this remarkable book.' Dr Swee Chai Ang, Author of From Beirut
to Jerusalem
