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.
