Overview

Aids: Don't Die of Prejudice, by Norman Fowler, explores the HIV/AIDS crisis that - scandalously - continues to affect millions of people across the world, despite the fact that we now have all the necessary means to prevent it. Travelling to nine different cities, from Russia and the Ukraine to the United States, Fowler shows that the problem is not limited to Africa, and that the threat often lies closer to home that we might think.

An immensely important and readable book. There is no political voice in Britain who speaks on the subject with such authority. Stephen Fry

'An immensely important and readable book. There is no political voice in Britain who speaks on the subject with such authority.' Stephen Fry '[a] powerful book]' Peter Tatchell, Evening Standard 'It is a pacey read and its insistence that tolerance and harm reduction are the only way forward - is to be warmly commended.' The Independent Fowler's message of tolerance and pragmatism, and his continued commitment to the field, is creditable in a world that still has a long way to go in fighting prejudice, and as a result in ending the scourge of HIV.
