A wide-ranging examination of all the factors affecting the safety of life for women and children in Africa, encompassing both health and legal/social issues.
Brings together perspectives on issues related to child and maternal health from a variety of different angles. While diseases such as HIV/AIDS, malaria and others continue to threaten the lives of women and children in sub-Saharan Africa, there is more to combating these epidemics than eradicating the vectors responsible for them. To this end the chapters contained herein discuss social and legal issues such as women''s abortion rights and African practices; the rights of HIV-infected children and AIDS orphans; and the prevalence of violence against women.
