Description
Medical Innovation in Humanitarian Situations explores how the particular style of humanitarian action practiced by Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has stayed in line with the standards in scientifically advanced countries while also leading to significant improvements in the medical care delivered to people in crisis.

These reflections show how humanitarian medicine does not need to be second-rate, and that innovations in medicine are possible in the most unlikely of contexts.
