Product Description
"Restoring Hope" is a grounding of decent care in a human-ethical tradition, providing a unique interfaith convergence of ideas at a time when religion is said to be at the source of so much conflict.This book provides a unique approach to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, linking health and religion. This book is the result of a global consultation and has international appeal. It identifies the ethical foundations of the 'right to health' and the Alma Ata Principles. It is useful to both theoreticians and practical implementers.This volume is a call to re-examine assumptions about what care is and how it be practised. Rather than another demand for radical reform, it makes the case for thinking clearly and critically. It urges people living with HIV to become full partners in designing and implementing their own care and for caregivers to accept them in this role.
