AIDS, Ancestors and Salvation : Local Beliefs in Christian Ministry to the Sic k

Abstract

As a book originally written for the academic community, this popular version is a success. It is a success for many other reasons: First because it deals with HIV/AIDS: As a book that adds its voice to the understanding of this plague of the century, it is a welcome addition. It is welcome because the search for understanding of the illness has been superseded by the search for the cure of the disease. In my opinion, AIDS kill not only because it is a disease, the death is fastened and those dying terrified because people have forgotten that AIDS is also an illness. Peter Knox, presents this book in such a way that this forgotten aspect is brought to fore once again.
