Book excerpt: Across the world, local women are helping one another tackle problems that darken their lives - poverty, disease, discrimination, illiteracy, inequality. They possess a precious resource: imagination. Photojournalist Paola Gianturco takes readers on a journey - climbing Annapurna, eating lunch while soldiers carry sandbags to a roof, watching a healer at work, welcoming babies to the world. Her images are of 129 women from 15 countries and describe their lives, dreams and work.
