About the author
As a plastic reconstructive surgeon, Don Mangus has travelled since 1973 to Asia, South America and Africa, where he has performed countless surgical procedures. He has travelled overseas independently and with Project Hope, Interplast, Orthopedics Overseas, Care-Medico, and the Medical Benevolent Foundation.
In South Korea, he treated and reconstructed massive burns and their subsequent deformities. In Addis Ababa in Ethiopia when the capital was surrounded by Eritrean rebels, he operated on the mutilating war injuries at the Army Hospital and at the Black Lion Hospital.
Dr. Mangus has amassed a lifetime of experience with victims of war, trauma and disease. As past founder and director of a Northern California burn center, he reflects in this book his great feelings for the victims of the sometimes violent and tragic side of the human experience.
