Synopsis

THE RIVER is an unprecedented investigation into the origins of AIDS, the most terrible epidemic of the twentieth century. Based on nine years of full-time research by science journalist Edward Hooper, and involving over 600 interviews and the examination of over 4,000 books and articles, THE RIVER is certain to become THE authoritative chronicle of the AIDS pandemic. This is an exceptionally compelling and vivid epic of investigation, adventure and revelation. 'What scoops, what personalities, what landscapes, what far places! Above all what enigmas, what awful inexorable tragedy stand there behind! Everyone should read this book, both for its story and in order to think hard on all that it implies' - W.D. Hamilton, University of Oxford
