It was fascinating to read of the Indian government's support for other medical traditions, and the ways that this may be used to combat the real shortages of medics willing to work in rural areas. Perhaps most inspiring and hopeful were the initiatives that are changing world medicine, from programmes training women unable to access hospital care before and after they have a baby (rather than just focusing on healthy delivery) to a doctor using MRI scans to learn about how we see (and in the process getting funding for children's cataract operations). Great book. ( )
