Inhaltsangabe

H.I.V./A.I.D.S. continues to devastate the lives of individuals and families, communities and countries. A growing numbness about H.I.V./A.I.D.S., however, infects many people. Many fail to recognize that the A.I.D.S. epidemic is still getting worse, now spreading rapidly in the world's most populous countries. To help raise and renew consciousness about this threat to the world, Ethics and A.I.D.S.: Compassion and Justice in Global Crisis summarizes the basics of the A.I.D.S. epidemic and presents key themes insights based on the Hebrew and Christian scriptures. This ethical perspective is the result of decades of dialogue among Roman Catholics and other Christians, building on the strengths of the various traditions. This book offers a Christian view, with special emphasis on Roman Catholic thought; many of its ethical insights, however, can be shared by other faith traditions and by all people who desire to respond to the A.I.D.S. pandemic.
