Dr. Mukwege, the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize laureate, has witnessed unimaginable destruction and suffering that no one should ever have to endure. He has saved countless lives, even at the risk of losing his own in several attacks. His tireless work to heal survivors of sexual violence in his war-torn country of Congo has earned him recognition as a global champion of women's rights. In his book, part autobiography and part plea against sexual violence in times of peace and war, Mukwege highlights the role of the extraordinary women who shaped and inspired him. He tells a story of struggle and suffering, but also of hope and resilience. He has seen thousands of women on the brink of death and heard their harrowing stories, but he has also witnessed them heal, buy land, start businesses, and help rebuild their shattered communities. The book also denounces the rapes and sexual violence suffered by women in places like the United States, Europe, and Asia, emphasizing throughout the mistreatment women face in homes and on the streets in every corner of the world. Finally, Dr. Mukwege appeals to men, guiding and encouraging them to become allies in the fight against sexual abuse. Through his personal example and his ideas, he hopes to inspire a new form of "positive masculinity": a change in men's behavior and attitudes that will contribute to building more inclusive and gender-equal societies.
