Foreword Surgery and Healing in the Developing World The major thrust of this book is to present a collection of “how I do it” from 50 authors. The whole book is a valuable traveling companion for those attempting their first medical mission, or veterans of many such trips eager to better perform this art. There is an occasional familiar name among the authors, Robert Blanchard, a remarkable Canadian academic surgeon. His chapter will bring readers up-to-date on surgical infections. Blanchard’s experience extends into Pakistan and broadens our view of western commitment to medicine in the developing world. Diane Downing and Ahuka Ona Longombe worked together with the editor among the iodine-deficient Azandies, a neglected tribe in Zaire (Congo). In Surgery and Healing we find them on their own, each doing other things; both exemplify common sense to an uncommon degree. Longombe’s “Study of the Epidemiology and Treatment of Fractures” and “Surgical Training of Nurses for Rural Areas” merit careful attention. He learned by doing it over and over again. Longombe’s collaboration between equally well trained surgeons in Africa. Surgical improvisation is the result; it is often the most fun of all. Diane Downing’s chapter on “Tropical Nursing” demonstrates her experience perfectly. In addition to her experience she has a creative scientific mind and unquenchable spirit. Given the timing necessary for “Surgery and Healing” I’ve yet to read, “Medicine Writ Large in the Raw, Without Power or Plumbing” which, as in three other chapters, are solely written by Glenn Geelhoed himself. These insights should be valuable. On balance Glenn Geelhoed and his co-authors, give us a deep but unpretentious storehouse of good things to know about, surgery and healing in the developing world. Unquestionably, this is the right thing at the right time. We are grateful to all concerned. Timothy S. Harrison
