About the Dr. Flavier introduces the reader to some of his friends in the barrios - and soon they become his friends too. They come alive as, with deft, down-to-earth strokes, the author paints them on his canvas of rural life. Readers discover the answers to such intriguing questions as "Do eggs die?" "Why does operating a poultry lead to havin many children?""How does a rural swain woo his girl?""Who gets rich in rice production?""How do you explain the I.U.D. in the barrio?" Medical works, agricultural economists, family planners, sociologists who enjoyed Doctor to the Barrios, will find here another "painless textbook"; and seekers of good solid humor will enjoy several hours of entertainment! All will grow in their understanding and appreciation of the 70 percent of the Filipino people who live in rural areas.
