Damned Nationsis the brilliant distillation of Samantha Nutt's observations over the course of fifteen years providing hands-on care in some of the world's most violent flashpoints.
Combining original research with her personal story, it is a deeply thoughtful meditation on war as it is being waged around the world against millions of civilians — primarily women and children. Samantha's boundless energy, dedication, and compassion shine through on every page as she lays out real, lasting solutions to these problems and shows how to move beyond outdated notions of charity towards a more progressive, inclusive, and respectful world view.
