note
| - La 4ème de couv. indique : \"Imagine the combined populations of New York, Chicagp and los Angeles infected with HIV, and the magnitude of the catastrophe in Africa is clear. For the past several years, internationally acclaimed journalist Stephanie Nolen has traces AIDS across Africa, and 28 is the result : an unprecedented, uniquely human portrait of the continent in crisis. In every instance, Nolen has borne witness to the stories she relates, whether riding with truck driver Mohammed Ali on a journey across Kenya;following Tigist Haile Michael, a smart, shy fourteen-year-old Ethiopian orphan fending for herself and younger brother on the slum streets of Addis Ababa; chronicling the efforts of Alice Kadzanja, an HIV-positive nurse in Malawi; or interviewing Nelson Mandela's family about coming to terùs with his own son's death from AIDS. She reveals how the disease works and spreads; how it is inextricably tied to conflict and famine and to the diverses cultures it has ravaged; how treatment works, and how people who can't get tratment fight to stay alive with courage and dignity against huge odds.\"
