Alan Foster

    Élevé dans l'Amazonie bolivienne occidentale par des parents missionnaires, l'auteur a découvert de première main les complexités de l'interaction avec des tribus nomades non contactées. Cette expérience fondamentale de franchissement des barrières culturelles et linguistiques a influencé son travail ultérieur avec son épouse pour nouer des liens d'amitié avec une autre bande de la même tribu, une entreprise difficile marquée par des risques importants. Son récit est façonné par un profond engagement à comprendre et à servir les communautés marginalisées, en soulignant la valeur de la connexion et du soutien à travers des modes de vie très différents. Son dévouement s'est étendu à la fourniture d'un soutien technique crucial pour les efforts missionnaires mondiaux.
