'On violence, discrimination, stigmatisation and trauma. Stunning photos and harrowing stories of people who have been pushed to the edge of society - and sometimes over it - by their fellowmen. Colet van der Ven and Adriaan Backer give them a name, a face and a voice.'
Jan Pronk - former Dutch Minister of Development Cooperation

'Behind the gripping images in this courageous book lie deeply tragic stories about traumatised people suffering from the effects of HIV. The conclusion is clear. the treatment of these hitherto ignored groups has been delayed for far too long.'
Hans Wijers - former Dutch Minister of Economic Affairs

'This book makes an essential contribution to the fight against stigmatisation because of HIV.'
Peter Piot - director of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and co-founder of UNAIDS
