Great book about the history of West Africa and how it has affected in the state of present health care
I very much appreciated his choice to center this narrative on the people affected (and infected) and other caregivers, rather than talk about his own extraordinary life and efforts. It was sad to see him, as of earlier this year, become one more example of an invaluable caregiver taken too soon, although his memory will certainly continue to be a blessing
