Description

The Endangered Self: Identity and Social Risk offers a deep look into the human side of the HIV/AIDS crisis. While much research focuses on prevention for those who are seronegative or the potential to infect others, this book shifts the focus to the individual experience. It examines how discovering an HIV positive status changes a person's sense of identity and how living with the condition affects personal social relationships. Through a comparative study of the UK and the US, authors Green and Sobo explore the stigma associated with an HIV positive status. This text provides a necessary perspective on identity change within a social context, making it a significant resource for those studying the social and psychological impacts of health risks. It moves beyond clinical data to understand the lived reality of individuals navigating a changing self-image in society.
