“HIV/AIDS in China: Beyond the Numbers is a fascinating account of how the AIDS epidemic forced these leaders into action. … This book offers a vivid history of China’s response to HIV from the pathogen’s emergence until the present, and it joins the relatively thin ranks of books that offer first-person accounts of important eras in public health. This is a must-read book for anyone interested in HIV, infectious diseases more generally, or global health.”
