The Deep South has seen a 36 percent increase in AIDS cases while the rest of the nation has seen a 2 percent decline. Many of the underlying reasons for the diseases continued spread in the regionignorance about HIV, reluctance to get tested, nonadherence to treatment protocols, resistance to behavioral changesremain unaddressed by policymakers.In this extensively revised second edition, Kathryn Whetten and Brian Wells Pence present a rich discussion of twentyfive ethnographic life stories of people living with HIV in the South. Most importantly, they incorporate research from their recent quantitative study, Coping with HIV/AIDS in the Southeast (CHASE), which includes 611 HIVpositive patients from North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Louisiana. This new edition continues to bring the participants voices to life while highlighting how the CHASE study confirmed many of the themes that originally emerged from the life histories. This is the first cohesive compilation of uptodate evidence on the unique and difficult aspects of living with HIV in the Deep South.
