"HIV Endurance focuses on the process of finding wholeness while navigating the landscapes of life and cultivating personal growth. The book is accessible to readers being introduced to the topic of HIV and women's lived experiences as well as informed readers. The data and research support the personal narratives and testimonies. D'Amore and the 17 women interviewed provide a needed focus on HIV and women's journeys. They offer advice on how to cope and how to find a transformed sense of self and a transformed life's purpose and meaning. -- ""Psychology of Women Quarterly"" HIV Endurance: Women's Journeys from Diagnosis to Aging is a thoughtful body of work that raises awareness about HIV and highlights the ways HIV has specifically impacted several women's lives. This book does a terrific job of exploring how women diagnosed with HIV navigate disclosure, stigma, identity, and aging. Additionally, this book will be of great interest to stakeholders and scholars within public health, health education, health communication, as well as women's, gender, and sexuality studies. --Cody M. Clemens, Marietta College"
