5.0 out of 5 stars
A very needed book that tells it like it is,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sharing the Front Line and the Back Hills: International Protectors and Providers : Peacekeepers, Humanitarian Aid Workers and the Media in the Midst of Crisis (Hardcover)
Mixing vignettes from aid workers and short articles that address issues and roles in the international aid community, this volume tells the hard side of aid work. The voices of aid workers describe terror, loneliness, and lingering psychosocial problems for which they receive no help and no resources, as well as the courage and dedication of the professionals that face dangers that are unimaginable to most people in the United States. Anyone thinking of working in international development should read this book first, and then ask themelves what skills, knowledge or support they will need to face the kinds of situations that are faced by the aid workers in this book. They should not count on getting much help from aid organizations.
