The book likely chronicles the life and achievements of Dr. Ida Scudder, a third-generation medical missionary in India. Born into a missionary family, Ida initially had no intention of following in her family's footsteps. However, a transformative experience, where she witnessed the dire need for medical care for women in India, compelled her to pursue medicine. She returned to the United States to study and later came back to India, where she founded the Christian Medical College & Hospital in Vellore, Tamil Nadu. This institution became one of the most respected medical training centers in Asia. Dr. Scudder's story is one of determination, faith, and groundbreaking contributions to healthcare, particularly for women in India. Her legacy is a testament to her unwavering commitment to serving the underserved and her pioneering role in medical education and healthcare in India.
