If you’re looking for a book fluctuating from the mundane to the serious, from the frivolous to the tragic, as told by an American doctor serving in a “bush” hospital in Tanzania, this one is for you. Medical situations are depicted, but it’s much more than medical. It deals candidly with the cultural observations and experiences of the author in his beloved Third World hospital, village, and country. You’ll find the chapters vary from interesting, amazing, humorous, to sometimes hardly believable. The contrast with your First World is stark at times – not better or worse, right or wrong, just different. Laugh and cry with Dr. Black and his wife as you vicariously join them on their journey of service in Tanzania.
