Mountains Beyond Mountains

By Tracy Kidder

Tracy Kidder’s **NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**, *Mountains Beyond Mountains*, is the 20th Anniversary Edition of the gripping biography of Dr. Paul Farmer. A visionary physician, Farmer dedicated his life to bringing modern medicine to the world's most destitute, battling infectious diseases from Harvard to Haiti, Peru, Cuba, and Russia. This "masterpiece" (USA Today) illuminates how one person can profoundly impact global health by understanding the complex interplay of politics, wealth, and disease, driven by the philosophy that "the only real nation is humanity." Winner of the Lettre Ulysses Award, this edition includes a new foreword by the author.
