The Politics and History of AIDS Treatment in Brazil

From the reviews:

"Amy Nunn’s book
The Politics and History of AIDS Treatment in Brazil
maps the political landscape that led to this landmark in public health policy, and the subsequent growth of Brazil’s AIDS treatment programme into one of the largest and most equitable in the world. ...the story Nunn tells is absolutely fascinating." -Elizabeth Pisani, The Lancet, Vol 374

"This is an exceptional academic work, one that deserves to be widely read, and that in my opinion will come to be considered the leading historical study on the social and policy response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Brazil – and one of the major policy studies on the response to the AIDS epidemic anywhere in the world." -Richard Parker, Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University

“The historical accuracy and completeness of the material presented is exceptional. The general lines of argument and analyses are insightful, and the quality of the historical data overall is outstanding. The Politics and History of AIDS Treatment in Brazil deserves to be read by scholars in fields ranging from public health to international relations, development studies, the history of medicine and similar fields. It is a book that cuts across disciplinary divides and provides new insight into the social and political history of Brazil.” (Richard Parker, Bulletin of Latin American Research, Vol. 30 (4), 2011)
