Title: AIDS in Asia
First published: 2005
Description: "The spread of AIDS in Asia is accelerating so quickly that it will soon overtake growth of the disease in Africa. Over the next two decades, the containment of Asia's epidemics will be crucial to global stability because the region is home to 60 percent of the world's population. At the crucial moment - the tipping point - when the spread of AIDS in this region is beginning to gain worldwide recognition, Susan Hunter makes clear the catastrophic threat AIDS poses to Asia and the world, and draws on her experience in other countries to map out steps that must be taken to contain it."--Jacket.
