Dr. Schweitzer of Lambaréné.

Description:

"Dr. Schweitzer of Lambarene is in the nature of a personal appreciation of one of the towering figures of the twentieth century. Written on the basis of firsthand knowledge and observation, it is an informal, intimate account of Albert Schweitzer at work and in repose. Norman Cousins attempts to convey some idea of the burden Schweitzer has taken upon himself and why he chose to take it. He also tells of Schweitzer's deep concern of the natural rights and the safety of the human community on earth." Taken from inside front jacket.
