In this book, Flavier focused on the common problems encountered by Filipinos living in rural areas. It tackles topics related to barriers in obtaining health care such as "low wages, lack of facilities, and medical supply". He also discussed solutions in alleviating the rural people's health problems through the health workers or health care providers, including how to handle superstitious beliefs, through principles of practicality and simplicity.
