Extraordinary photographic portraits, in concert with the words
of medical volunteers and the children they treat in Peru and Vietnam,
tell a very special story of giving --- offering a compelling and moving
look at the sometimes surprising and unexpected ways that giving of
ourselves to help others can touch and transform our own lives.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

For over 25 years Phil Borges has been visiting and documenting
indigenous and tribal cultures around the world. Through his projects,
he strives to promote and preserve cultural diversity. His images tap
deeply into the human spirit of his subjects, whose warm and honest faces
peer out from colorless and spectacular landscapes.

Phil s exhibit and award-winning book, TIBETAN PORTRAIT: The Power of
Compassion, focused on the endangered people of Tibet, marginalized by
the Chinese occupation of their homeland. "With direct, uncompromising
gazes, his subjects, old and young, stare back with a wisdom and strength
that seems born of suffering," writes the Washington Post. In 1998 he
joined Amnesty International to present ENDURING SPIRIT, an exhibit and
book celebrating the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights.
