New York: Abbeville Press Publishers, 1994. Second Printing. Hard Cover. As New/Near Fine. Jones, Carolyn. This moving and beautiful book offers unprecedented insight into the astounding strength of the human spirit when confronted with illness, pain, loss, and death. Carolyn Jones' vivid and life-affirming portraits capture people from all backgrounds - children and grandmothers, men and women of all races - living with HIV and AIDS. A common and harmful misconception holds that AIDS is an instant death sentence but, in fact, testing positive for HIV does not mean immediate illness. 73 people volunteered to pose for these photographs in an inspiring effort to change the way we think about AIDS. Jones' compelling portraits have the power to profoundly alter perceptions about this disease, and about the way we all live and die. 87 pages, small black remainder mark on the bottom. The binding is white cloth; the jacket price is clipped. Fully illustrated with black & white photos. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
