Race Against Time reproduces the Massey Lectures delivered by Stephen Lewis in the fall of 2005. This second edition includes an afterword chronicling events in the intervening years.

" Lewis' determination to bear witness to the desperate plight of so many in Africa and elsewhere is balanced by his unique, personal, and often searing insider's perspective on our ongoing failure to help. In audacious prose, alive with anecdotes ranging from maddening to hilarious to heartbreaking, Lewis shows why and now the international community is falling desperately short of (its) goals. But he also offers bracingly attainable solutions to help us avoid what will otherwise be a terrible stain on the record of human achievement in the twenty-first century." — Race Against Time, 2nd edition

Stephen Lewis dedicates this volume "(t)o the women living with AIDS in Africa. Indomitable, Resilient, Courageous. One day the world will come to its senses."
