For the past twenty years Stefano Guindani`s ruling passion has been photography in all its guises. In this latest work he explores a particularly difficult social theme: children in Haiti. In no other country in the western hemisphere do children run such a high risk of death while still in their infancy as those born in Haiti. Thousands of Haitian children fight for survival on a daily basis. In rural areas they have no access to the most basic of public services, often having to walk miles to get health care or even find a water supply. But despite being one of the poorest countries in the world, where 70% of the population is unemployed, talent & energy abound, as the Rava Foundation has discovered. Registered charity Rava works to promote awareness, sponsorship for children & voluntary work, as well as running an orphanage, schools, a pediatric hospital & a rehabilitation centre for handicapped children on the isl&. Guidani`s very moving shots capture a world of hope without any trace of pity or commiseration for children who can still trust in the future &, despite all, view their world with eternal optimism. ...

Tragedy often has a way of visiting those who can bear it least. & on January 12, 2010 this is exactly what happened to Haiti, the poorest nation in the Western hemisphere. At 4:53 PM on that day, an earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale hit a point just southwest of the capital city of Port-au-Prince. In a just a few terrifying minutes, a vibrant city was devastated, & tens of thousands died. Immediately the scale of the tragedy was apparent
- a nation that was already so often on its knees had been knocked to the ground. In this book, TIME magazine assembles words & pictures to provide a harrowing & sometimes heart breaking account of the earthquake, the devastation it left behind & the struggle that followed to save lives & put a shattered world back together. Combining stories of tragedy & chaos, desperation & miraculous rescue, it offers a powerful vision of one terrible day & the difficult days that followed, as the world responded with an outpouring of aid that overwhelmed Haiti's blocked roads, damaged runways & barely functioning national government. Dozens of vivid photographs document the pain & grief of the victims & the heroism of the rescuers. Because those needs are so great, TIME will donate a share of all proceeds from this book to Haitian relief efforts.
