AIDS: The Politics of Survival
Teised raamatud teemal:
Twelve contributions present analyses premised upon the view that politics is central to understanding, shaping, and altering the course of the AIDS epidemic. Arrangement is in sections on the politics of AIDS, community survival in the US, women, and solidarity. No index. Paper edition (unseen), $18. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

In one short decade, the politics of AIDS has become the politics of survival. In a world whose social order is changing before our eyes, AIDS insistently brings new meaning to the age-old question of what it is we must do to survive-as individuals, as families, as communities, as nations, as members of an interdependent world. This book brings together a collection of articles that frankly discuss what it will take to stop the AIDS epidemic and deal with the devastation it has already wrought.
