Driven by his stated intent to "make human rights substantial," Farmer has treated patients-and worked to address the root causes of their disease-in Haiti, Boston, Peru, Rwanda, and elsewhere in the developing world. In 1987, with several colleagues, he founded Partners In Health to provide a preferential option for the poor in health care. Throughout his career, Farmer has written eloquently and extensively on these efforts. Partner to the Poor collects his writings from 1988 to 2009 on anthropology, epidemiology, health care for the global poor, and international public health policy, providing a broad overview of his work. It illuminates the depth and impact of Farmer's contributions and demonstrates how, over time, this unassuming and dedicated doctor has fundamentally changed the way we think about health, international aid, and social justice. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to Partners In Health. 410 0$aCalifornia Series in Public Anthropology 606 $aPoor$xMedical care 606 $aMedical anthropology 606 $aSocial medicine 606 $aEpidemiology 606 $aPublic health 615 0$aPoor$xMedical care. 615 0$aMedical anthropology. 615 0$aSocial medicine. 615 0$aEpidemiology. 615 0$aPublic health. 676 $a362.1086/942 700 $aFarmer$b Paul$f1959-$0532107 701 $aSaussy$b Haun$f1960-$0694849 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817597403321 996 $aPartner to the poor$94197091 997 $aUNINA
