Being positive

the lives of men and women with HIV

Edición de la obra Being positive

Based upon in-depth interviews with a broad cross-section of patients, Being Positive gives us the clearest picture we have of what life is like for people who have been diagnosed HIV positive. Most books about HIV and AIDS are filled with statistics, or they present the life of a single individual or the experience of several. But Being Positive analyzes the lives of a wide group of people - male and female, straight and gay, African American, white, and Latino - exploring the contrasts and similarities that emerge. The book is not only a humanizing antidote to statistical studies but an important benchmark in understanding the individual dramas of those who are affected. To gain a full grasp of who they are as people, and how they perceive the issues they confront, is Dr. Klitzman's aim.
