Debunking Delusions - The Inside Story of the Treatment Action Campaign (Signed)

One of the great, iconic struggles for social justice in the 21st century has been the campaign of the TAC against state-supported AIDS denialism in South Africa. This struggle between activists, scientists and health workers, on the one hand, and a strange alliance of dissidents, quacks and political leaders, on the other, is here recounted in absorbing and dramatic detail for the first time by an insider. In his book, Nathan Geffen, one of the TAC leaders, describes how early on in its life the organisation discovered that the greatest obstacle to AIDS treatment was in fact the South African government's denialism.
