What people are saying - Write a reviewUser Review - Flag as inappropriate Ms. Terry has done a wonderful and courageous thing by making her experience public. Her honest commitment to problem-solving leads her to dig deep than the usual cliches about crisis zones. Anyone who has the urge to "help" should read this book to think deeply about what helps. Her historical perspective shows that these conflicts aren't a new problem, but have always been a dimension of human society. Yet the natural force of local power struggles is magnified when outside rescuers allow themselves to be manipulated by the combatants. Cutting off aid when it goes to combatants is a difficult but necessary step that administrators understandably shrink from.
