What if you could stand behind the curious gaze of a herd boy and experience the thrills and wonders of a timeless primal world? What if you could retrace his footsteps from ancient grazing fields to the breathtaking complexities of a profession that straddles the boundaries of life and death? A Quest for New Dawn follows Dr. Ngatia's inspiring journey from a remote hamlet at the foothills of Mount Kenya in his unrelenting quest for purpose and fulfillment. In this gripping memoir, the reader is carried to the heart of life's most urgent questions on the raft of a deeply probing mind. Whether in the throes of a pitiless all-boys boarding school, on the ruins of the U.S. Embassy bombing in Nairobi, at the cadaver dissection table in medical school, or inside the Mormon temple, the author never steps far from life's basic imperative--the search for a durable meaning. Page after riveting page, his piercing wit is coupled with humor to create a moving narrative that penetrates the mind with profound insights. This memoir is for anyone who desires to live deeply and authentically.
