RETHINKING GOOD INTENTIONS

A compelling story by a Canadian writer about bridging cultural divides. Nancy transports us to rural Sierra Leone. Meet village chiefs and traditional midwives. Encounter cultural clashes and their resolution. Experience how community health nursing work rattles Nancy’s preconceptions, provokes her notions of social privilege, and deepens her global connections.
