The Bond Between Women

In Nepal, a doctor tirelessly rescues children who have been sold to brothels. In India, women band together to clean the waters of the Ganges. In Brazil, a woman teaches street children in a makeshift school under a freeway. In the U.S., Mother Teresa's Sisters feed the poor and a Buddhist nun teaches the art of peacemaking. Part travel memoir, part spiritual pilgrimage, and part call to action, this book reveals fierce compassion in action -- and offers an inspiring look at the bond between women and the suprising strength of its power to change the world.
