In 2000, retinal specialist James Hung made his first trip to Xinjiang, China to donate equipment and work with the people of the poor northwestern province. Over the span of a decade, Dr. Hung developed friendships with many Uyghurs-a Turkic Muslim people who inhabit the area-and explored the vivid history, culture, politics and language of these friendly but troubled people. In addition to his volunteer work, Dr. Hung took the opportunity to visit major stops along the Silk Road, fulfilling a childhood dream to explore the historic trade route. From the mountains, rivers and monuments of the Silk Road to the bustling cities and the clinic at the Adiya Eye Hospital, Silk Road on My Mind is a unique look at the land and people of northwestern China from a perspective that few have experienced.
