Gostin\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this collection of essays, Lawrence O. Gostin, an internationally recognized scholar of AIDS law and policy, confronts the most pressing and controversial issues surrounding AIDS in America and around the world. He shows how HIV\/AIDS affects the entire population -- infected and uninfected -- by influencing our social norms, our economy, and our country's role as a world leader.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow in the third decade of this pandemic, the nation and the world still fail to respond to the needs of persons living with HIV\/AIDS and continue to tolerate injustice in their treatment, Gostin argues. AIDS, both in the United States and globally, deeply affects poor and marginalized populations, and many U.S. policies are based on conservative moral values rather than public health and social justice concerns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGostin tackles the hard social, legal, political, and ethical issues of the HIV\/AIDS pandemic: privacy and discrimination, travel and immigration, clinical trials and drug pricing, exclusion of HIV-infected health care workers, testing and treatment of pregnant women and infants, and needle-exchange programs. This book provides an inside account of AIDS policy debates together with incisive commentary. It is indispensable reading for advocates, scholars, health professionals, lawyers, and the concerned public.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 496\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 01, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52241709203730,"sku":"9781469614694","price":97.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2211\/5346\/files\/I2f0WLnF4J9781469614694.webp?v=1777904322","url":"https:\/\/ckbookstore.net\/products\/the-aids-pandemic-complacency-injustice-and-unfulfilled-expectations-paperback","provider":"CK BOOKSTORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
