Risky Marriage

HIV and Intimate Relationships in Tanzania

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Rooted in the lives and experiences of women living with HIV and AIDS in Tanzania, Risky Marriage: HIV and Intimate Relationships in Tanzania uses qualitative fieldwork with HIV positive women to ask why marriage is an HIV risk factor. Beginning with women's experience as a hermeneutical lens, Browning argues for re-imagined Christian conceptions of marriage, sexual ethics, and health to promote human flourishing and abundance in African communities.
