"An important and compelling contribution to the field of public health education . . . recommended to all those interested in finding ways of addressing the basic issues of health care inequality and social injustice through community education and organisation"
This is a splendid and courageous book. . . . Tidily organised, properly directed and well-written. It will be significant reading for health and AIDS activists, those involved in development studies and social theorists of various stripes.
A superb analysis of community development initiatives . . . well researched, intelligently summarised, and riveting . . . an important and compelling contribution.
A superb ethnography of a leading HIV/AIDS prevention programme . . . There is an honesty in Campbell's writing that makes uncomfortable reading
A compelling demonstration of the value and power of qualitative research and process evaluation . . . intriguing and important . . . provides an inspiring intervention paradigm.
Brave, frank, perceptive . . . a uniquely detailed description and interpretation.
The book is a major achievement, setting the standard for rigorous evaluation of planning and delivering HIV prevention. It should be required reading . . . for all interested in developing or evaluating social interventions to promote health.
Arguably the most important practitioner critique to have appeared in recent years . . . a landmark book. . . . I salute the author’s intellectual honesty.
An important and compelling contribution to the field of public health education . . . recommended to all those interested in finding ways of addressing the basic issues of health care inequality and social injustice through community education and organisation
