Reviews
- "In my view, newly indispensable reading for any discussion about HIV and AIDS in Africa is a fine book by economist Eileen Stillwaggon, AIDS and the Ecology of Poverty. One of the best chapters is Chapter 7, Racial Metaphors: Interpreting Sex and AIDS in Africa. The most important thread of that chapter is her sober, low-keyed, meticulous denouement of the errant and abhorrent research claims made by demographers John and Pat Caldwell. In that chapter, Stillwaggon exposes the racist claptrap and utterly distorted observations that so characterize those two doyens of mainstream AIDS claims about African sexual behavior." — Charles Geshekter, personal correspondence, May 2006
