AIDS and Accusation: Haiti and the Geography of Blame

AIDS and Accusation: Haiti and the Geography of Blame

Does the scientific â€œtheoryâ€ 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.
