From the reviews:
“This book reviews the history and context of HIV/AIDS in African Americans and discusses interventions targeting specific subpopulations. ... The authors intend this book for anyone interested in a greater understanding of HIV among African Americans and it is appropriate for health workers, researchers, academics, students, and activists. Each chapter is written by leading experts in the area. ... This is an expertly written body of work that superbly summarizes some key areas for understanding the HIV/AIDS epidemic disparity among African Americans.” (Basmattee Boodram, Doody’s Review Service, January, 2011)
“This wide-ranging text compiled by experts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) addresses many of the key issues associated with this disparity while making an important contribution to the field of HIV prevention. ... Readers who believe this epidemic can be stopped by more creative approaches to increasing consistent condom use or that the disparity is because African Americans engage in more risk behaviors than whites owe it to themselves to pick up this engaging book.” (Eve D. Mokotoff, Journal of the American Medical Association, May, 2011)
