It challenges us to consider our choices and responsibilities in a time of deep crisis."" --Nozizwe Madlala-Routledge, deputy speaker, South African National Assembly ""This book is about much more than merely writing up an important part of our history. It is about trying to understand the extent of the calamity that befell us through the mismanagement of AIDS, and how it happened, so as to forewarn us against a repetition."" --Justice Edwin Cameron, Constitutional Court of South Africa and recipient of the Nelson Mandela Award for Health and Human Rights"
