- Book Synopsis
- A dispatch from the front lines of the world's most pressing humanitarian crisis. Meet the children, women, and men who have given up untenable lives in Syrian conflict zones for the risk of travel as refugees, to Greece. Editors Bill Dienst, MD and Madi Williamson and their contributors -- most of whom have served on the ground with the ngo SCM Medical -- report from the refugee camps of Greece on the crisis of refugees, primarily Syrian refugees, who have fled the violence and are now caught in military style detention camps with no end in sight.
