Chapter 8

In chapter 8 of Mountains Beyond Mountains. I read that Paul Farmer went to Haiti for a research on anthropology and medicine. I also learned that Farmer found out of Haiti's condition not by books but through his experience. Also, in chapter 8 it showed Farmer attending voodoo ceremonies to get a better understanding of their culture. Chapter 8 also showed us why Farmer wanted to help Haiti. Farmer failed to help a women and her unborn baby so he was determined to build a hospital where patients doesn't need to pay for use of medicines.
