[Janelle Zimmerman · Rating 4 out of 5]

Non-christian, carefully neutral/positive regarding prostitution and sex outside marriage. Otherwise, good overview of the effects of HIV/AIDS, how community health workers can develop programs for education, prevention, and treatment.

Their almost fanatical evangelism of teaching about HIV put me to shame. I do not (yet) have that same passion for telling people about the Gospel. But I want to.
