"Tracks Every 3 Minutes."
Read by Cary Hite.
Sampson Davis is best known as one of three friends from inner-city Newark who made a pact in high school to become doctors. In this book, Dr. Davis looks at the health-care crisis in the inner city from a rare perspective: that of a doctor who works on the front line of emergency medical care in the community where he grew up and as a member of that community who has faced the same challenges as the people he treats every day. He also offers invaluable practical advice for those living in such communities, where conditions like asthma, heart disease, strokes, obesity, and AIDS are disproportionately endemic.
