HIV Prevention: A Global Theological Conversation

edited by Gillian Paterson (2009)

In this challenging book, 35 theologians and practitioners, from different traditions and continents, engage in a conversation with one another, with their hurches, with UN agencies, and with organizations of people living with HIV or AIDS. The aim is to establish some common ground that will translate into action, and to help people understand better the issues related to HIV prevention on which theologians cannot agree.
