It is a mistake to think that wars only
concern armies involved in active engagement. Nothing is
farther from the truth. The real forces of evil wage a
financial war. The dark princes of debt finance have gained
leverage over every important social, economic, and
political institution-including the health care delivery
system.
In AIDS, Opium, Diamonds, and
Empire, author Nancy Turner Banks draws the
connections between free market strategies, the destruction
of national sovereignty by the process of globalization, and
AIDS as one of the health consequences of a neo-Darwinian
philosophy. Through meticulous research, Banks found a
medicalpharmaceutical- industrial complex that was taken
over one hundred years ago by the titans of financial
capitalism. Their aim was to create profit, not to conquer
disease. This book of social history points to a cauldron of
historical events that contributed to the HIV/AIDS
crisis.
AIDS, Opium, Diamonds, and Empire
tells the dramatic story of a financial ideology
that is damaging to everything that it means to be human. It
is the story of profits over people. In the end, it is the
story of hope and how we can regain our sanity and our
health in a world gone mad.
