"Paul Farmer speaks directly to young people grappling with big decisions: about the values they will live by, the work they will choose, where their responsibility for other people begins and ends. But these questions concern all of us. And, for anyone struggling with these issues, I can't imagine a more challenging yet inspiring guide than Paul Farmer."--Jim Yong Kim, former President of the World Bank Group, cofounder of Partners In Health "Whenever there is a need, Paul is the first guy out the door. His humility is legendary and one hundred percent genuine. Medical students all over the world have told me they entered our shared profession because of Dr. Paul Farmer. Now, it is time for the rest of the planet to be inspired, and in these pages they learn what it takes To Repair the World."--Sanjay Gupta, Chief Medical Correspondent at CNN and Associate Chief of Neurosurgery at Emory University School of Medicine "Here is Paul at those special moments when we want and need a moral exemplar, calling us to do what good we can for those who have nothing, who are broken, who are left behind, who are sick and disabled, who need to be accompanied, and whose betterment betters us."--Arthur Kleinman, Esther and Sidney Rabb Professor of Anthropology at Harvard University "Paul Farmer has a knack for persuading an audience to participate in his lectures, whether aloud or in silence. The liveliness of his talks comes in part from his delivery, but also from the qualities of the lectures themselves: the freshness of their ideas, their wit, and their passion. And these, thankfully, are qualities which this collection preserves."--Tracy Kidder, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Soul of a New Machine, Among Schoolchildren, Mountains Beyond Mountains, and other titles. "Paul Farmer is the most compelling voice for justice in a generation. In this volume are the stories and insights that have helped thousands of students imagine--and fight for--a better world. Read this to be inspired. Read this to learn. Most importantly, when you're done, give this book to a friend and join the movement for health equity."--Jonny Dorsey, cofounder of FACE AIDS and Global Health Corps
