"David Morley's "Healing Our World: Inside Doctors Without Borders" is as fine a way as any to give teenagers a sense of what's possible out there in the world of disease and poverty. . . this is a very practical book, one to kindle the interest not just of young activists, but of any teens leaning toward a career in health services."

"This is an excellent, timely, and relevant account of the work of MA(c)decins Sans FrontiA]res/Doctors Without Borders by the executive director of MSF Canada from 1998 to 2005. . . The easy-to-read text is accompanied by black-and-white photos that show the humanity and the intense severity of the conditions described. This fascinating volume will introduce readers to a dedicated organization that gives people who live in forgotten places 'evidence that someone actually cares.'"
