Produktbeschreibung

Dr. Quarshie, on his journey and quest for higher education in the field of medicine, tries to depict the challenges faced by a majority of foreign students pursuing their careers abroad, particularly in the pursuit of a career in medicine. He intersperses these difficulties with the narration of the trials and fulfillment experienced whilst simultaneously raising a family. With each turn of the page he takes his readers through the ups and downs of the trying but exciting journey and delights them by depicting the varying prominent personalities of the recent and not so recent past with their applicable quotes. Dr. Quarshie ends with a road map charting his plans for increased contribution to global medicine. The setting is Wisconsin, New York, Georgia and Virginia, in that order, all in the United States. The foundation of Dr. Quarshies growth and education in Ghana is significantly portrayed.
