Dr. Paul Farmer, the subject of this book, won a MacArthur Award, also called the "genius" award, which is fitting since he is a genius. He sees, very clearly, the impediments to health of the poor, finds, what in retrospect, are straightforward solutions and implements them in spite of seemingly huge obstacles.
