Yet while programs to combat HIV\/AIDS have been critical, they often exist alongside public healthcare systems and social conditions that struggle to gain attention and support. \u003ci\u003eUnequal Worlds of Care \u003c\/i\u003eexamines how policymakers, providers, and patients in Malawi navigate a healthcare system transformed unevenly by foreign aid. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The book illustrates how actors contend with global health programs that only partially recognize their healthcare realities, through methods that include political resistance, refusal of treatment, and simply leveraging opportunities within unequal systems of care. Ultimately, these official programs' disregard for fundamental aspects of healthcare produced only partial recoveries. Amy Zhou's work provides a comprehensive portrait of the human costs of institutional constraints--as well as the essential ingenuity and dignity of the people continuing to pursue care within these uncertain pathways. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amy Zhou\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520409191\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520409194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 275\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Amy Zhou","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46962018779391,"sku":"9780520409194","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_eddbfb40-e4a4-4d53-933c-61788b160de2.jpg?v=1750649069","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/unequal-worlds-of-care-amy-zhou-9780520409194","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
