Author Paul R. Martel lives and works in two worlds. As the founder of a successful investment management firm, he is a capitalist. In his humanitarian work bringing medical care to the poor, he works in largely socialist countries that are badly broken and awash in poverty, violence and hopelessness. The author brings a unique and powerful perspective to the subject of economic life at an important time in our country's history. The book explores the paradigms of freedom and socialism in these two distinct worlds. It seeks to explain the contrast between the immense pride and gratitude he feels upon returning from his trips to the U.S. and his dismay at the widespread apathy to our free-market system and the sense that capitalism is on trial. By recounting many personal experiences, the author provides a hard look at the realities of a socialist paradigm and explains the background and potential of our own paradigm of freedom. The book seeks to inspire Americans to better understand, appreciate and utilize the economic system we are gifted to have and use it to bring about the change we wish to see in the world.All profits from the sale of this book will be used to support the work of FIBUSPAM in Ecuador to bring medical care to the poor.
