Publisher Description:
About A Saudi Hospital in the Empty QuartersIn their plan to bring their citizens into the 20th century, in the early 1990s Saudi Arabia provided healthcare to remote towns. Wanting greater challenges than my decade as a Respiratory Therapist offered, I joined an international medical team to staff a new hospital on the edge of the Empty Quarters. Armed with hope, love of adventure, and filled with high ideals, I was the first outsiders many Saudis encountered who, until recently, lived in mud villages and tents. This is my remarkable story as a respiratory therapist's venture into an isolated town near the Yemen border. Have you wondered what it was like for foreigners living in the most conservative Islamic society on earth?Welcome to Saudi Arabia of 1991, a nation at the crossroads between the old and new. In this updated and expanded third edition, the articles are packed with more intimation into my adventures and include new photographs of this vanished world.
