Description


This beautiful book is by photographer Mark Tuschman.  For the past decade, he has journeyed across much of the developing world documenting the travails and triumphs of women living in very difficult circumstances.  On a daily basis, millions of these women face crippling poverty, sexual violence, serious health problems for themselves and their children, and often a total denial of even their most basic human rights.  In this extraordinary photo expose, Tuschman documents it all, along with the efforts by many international organizations, aid groups, and doctors and nurses to help these women and girls cope, heal, stand up for themselves and become all they can be.  This is reality in the raw, but as Tuschman shows us, these women have an almost unbelievable strength and resilience, and theirs are faces of incomparable dignity and courage.  The book comes with endorsements from major figures in the world of women’s health and human rights.
