There is No Me Without You: One Woman's Odyssey to Rescue her Country's Children
By Melissa Fay Greene

This story about rescuing children is also the story of how the AIDS virus became an epidemic (through infected immunization needles) and how US drug companies profited by selling products developed at public expense back to the tax-paying public, but not to the governments of sub-Saharan Africa because they could not afford to treat their dying patients, including parents and children.  An uplifting story of an Ethiopian widow who found new life in caring for hundred of children orphaned by the AIDS epidemic.
