Three Cups of Tea is one of the most inspirational books I've read. I've often had trouble, (when reading books about Iran, Iraq, and the middle east) keeping track of the people in the books because their names and language are so foreign to me (a personal flaw, I know). There was something about the way this story was told, that allowed me to get over that block. For which, I'm forever grateful.
While it's heartbreaking that we've avoided sincere dialogue with world leaders to end the Iraq war, I find hope through this book and I now know how I, as one simple person, can make a difference. Support the Central Asia Institute. This book is a must read.
