Reviews

This volume seeks to answer 'what next?' for people living with HIV in later life. The rich research and powerful narratives give us profound insights into stigma, resilience and meaning-making. Bryan Cochran, University of Montana HIV has become a largely 'forgotten' disease, with most individuals who experienced and survived the pandemic now in their 50s and 60s. Yet the challenges and lessons continue as long-term survivors age and medicine, policies and services adapt to HIV becoming a new chronic disease. This book is an essential look at these emerging issues. Michael W. Ross, University of Minnesota Medical School
