As there's "no wrong answer here", here is a summary from a non-reader of the book. It is, say those who know the late Joshua Horne's career, an account of how in about 1954 this English surgeon left (I say quit) the UK to join the 'revolutionary' army of Mao. "Away all pests" is the account of how it all worked out. Readers may be interested, Multiple sclerosis sufferers and their dependants very interested, in the fact that when Mr. Horne left for China a colleague had said to him "Why not try it, there's no MS there". Joshua Horne had at that time in 1954 the most aggressive form of the disease. Yet one can Google his 1971 speech to New York students as proof of how the symptoms of his MS "went to sleep" (as one family member of his described it). As someone with a first hand experience of MS I recommend "The China Study" by T. Colin Campbell and son, as a follow up to this account and/or immediately reference to the Prof. George Jelinek website and book "Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis" and the website devoted to the late Prof. Roy Laver Swank whose book about diet and MS (1987) is a "must read" for anyone in the field.
