When two elderly doctors join Voluntary Service Overseas, they find themselves in unusual circumstanceswhen they arrive in Cambodia. Together these women face not only humid weather, cockroaches, and cultural obstacles, but also something far more challenging: the harsh realities of a country still reeling from the prolonged terrors of Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge. With a generosity of spirit and an unquenchable sense of humor they plunge into the maelstrom of lawlessness where life is cheap, and guns and greed prevail. This third edition contains a postscript considering events since 2003, bringing the reader up to date with the situation in Cambodia as it is today."
