Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. When Ashok Alexander left a high-profile corporate job to head Avahan, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's programme to stem the growth of the HIV epidemic in India, he was plunged into an India far removed from the comfort zones he had lived and worked in all his life. It was a grinding place where women sold themselves for fifty rupees and fourteen-year-olds injected drugs. It was the shadow world of transgenders and of young gay men in a country that still criminalized same-sex love. It was the strange world of truckers, lonely journeymen along forgotten highways. Above all, it was a place where valiant battles for a barely decent life were being fought every day. During the ten years Alexander built Avahan, it grew to become one of the largest and most successful HIV prevention programmes in the world, credited with averting over 6.5 lakh new infections. Based on his experiences, A Stranger Truth compellingly brings alive the world of people most vulnerable to HIV/AIDS, and some of the unlikely heroes among them. Ashok Alexander led Avahan, a Gates Foundation program in India combating HIV. He faced a harsh reality of sex work, drug use, and societal taboos. Avahan grew into a successful prevention program, saving many lives. "A Stranger Truth" highlights the struggles and heroes in the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. There is an adventure inside every person, waiting to be had . . . the discovery of a self, long buried within.This personal belief reverberates through Ashok Alexander's How the Light Gets In. In his memoir of an improbable start-up in public health, he writes about an organization with the audacious goal of ending needless deaths and sicknessat scale, amongst India's poorest mothers and children. It is a great leap emboldened by an unshakable faith in the 'idea that cannot be denied'. It is a tale of adventure filled with twists and turns, told with a disarming honesty. Ashok writes with his signature ability to transport the reader from the ground-level view of a Mumbai shoeshine boy, through hushed hallways of power, and on to the green forests and enchanting hills of tribal Madhya Pradesh. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
