Such works seek to deconstruct the dominant myths that were made to stand in for a more complete understanding of the epidemic--and reveal what such narratives have long occluded.""--The New Republic ""Thoughtful . . . . A compact and knowledgeable study of the ""poster boy"" of the AIDS epidemic.""--Kirkus Reviews ""When it comes to media coverage of HIV, few Americans have garnered as many headlines as Ryan White. But there is a difference between the person and the cultural figure . . . . [Renfro] plumbs the depths of those contrasts [and] puts the late AIDS activist's life into context.""--POZ Magazine
