Autorenporträt

Philip McDaniel, MD grew up in northern Thailand, where his father was a medical missionary. After graduation from medical school, three years of training in internal medicine, and a year of surgical training, he returned to Thailand to work at the Kwai River Christian Hospital in the jungle of western Thailand. This location was quite remote-- at the headwaters of the River Kwai-- and the mission boards had had difficulty keeping it staffed. Phil resolved to try to last as long as possible, providing some continuity and allowing time to sponsor a promising young man from the community to be his replacement. In these pages Phil describes not only some of his own challenges and adventures, but also those of 14 former staff and spouses through letters and memoirs.
