基本説明
With a New Preface. Winner, 1992 Wellcome Medal of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland. Explaining and refuting a popular U.S. belief that AIDS came to the United States from Haiti.
Full Description
Does the scientific "theory" that HIV came to North America from Haiti stem from underlying attitudes of racism and ethnocentrism in the United States rather than from hard evidence? Award-winning author and anthropologist-physician Paul Farmer answers with this, the first full-length ethnographic study of AIDS in a poor society. First published in 1992, this new edition has been updated and a new preface added.
