“Courtenay Sprague shines a bright light on the gritty daily interchanges between unequal sex, inaccessible health care and continuing social injustice. This book reveals the roots of these damaging interchanges by giving voice to South African women living with HIV, while detailing structural barriers they still face more than two decades after the end of apartheid. This is such a valuable book.” (Cynthia Enloe, author of The Big Push: Exposing and Challenging the Persistence of Patriarchy)
“A seminal work that demands we understand the structural connection between gender-based violence, the HIV epidemic and women’s right to access healthcare; it confirms that this socially constructed human rights violation is one that can and must be solved.” (Bonita Meyersfeld, Associate Professor of Law and Director of the Centre for Applied Legal Studies, University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa)
“Courtenay Sprague’s volume on women, HIV and gender justice in South Africa is global public health scholarship at its best. In clear and accessible language, it offers a rare synthesis of research from disciplines as varied as anthropology, psychology, political philosophy, policy analysis, epidemiology and the biological sciences...Her analysis includes questions of treatment access and the quality of health services, but it also looks further afield, providing a wide-ranging reflection on the many gendered social and structural determinants of health for HIV positive women. The result is a rich, critical and holistic assessment of the ways in which the capacity of women living with HIV to live full, free and healthy lives has been foreshortened by social and structural barriers.” (Christopher Colvin, Associate Professor and Head of Social & Behavioral Sciences, School of Public Health & Family Medicine, University of Cape Town, South Africa)
