[Experiencing HIV: Personal, Family and Work Relationships] (By: Barry D. Adam) [published: November, 1996]

by Barry D. Adam

The authors, both sociologists, interviewed 100 seropositive people black and white, male and female, gay and heterosexual, well off and poor in southeastern Michigan and southwestern Ontario. The resulting stories about the effects of HIV infection on personal, family, and work relationships focus on the ways in which people deal with the difficulties posed by the syndrome. The intent is to facilitate a culture of "coping strategies, success stories, and practical knowledge for managing the disease." Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
