Under the Taliban rule, Afghan medical students were unable to learn the human body through anatomy books because all of the medical textbooks with illustrations were confiscated and destroyed. OML libraries throughout Afghanistan contain books that were once banned. These photos are of MAJ Nolen's current class (MDs, DDS & NRs) with the books they have selected from the OML "Library."
