2012 Women, HIV, and the Church. In Search of Refuge. By Arthur J Ammann. The book is a multi-author book that focuses on justice and the views that Jesus had of women. It was written in an effort to understand the church's lack of response to HIV-infected women in providing them a refuge from their pain and suffering. Individual authors address the critical issues related to the HIV epidemic, women, and the Christian church; how the HIV epidemic affected so many women and children; what the old and new Testaments teach about our responsibility to the poor, the needy, the sick, the widow, and the orphans; and how difficult it should be for Christians to ignore these teachings.

2007. Thymosins In Health and Disease. Goldstein. Somewhat confusingly there were two Dr. Goldstein's both working on thymic hormones. Allan Goldstein worked closely with Dr. Ammann and one of the first primitive thymic hormones was obtained from Goldstein to give to one of Dr. Ammann's patients. It is interesting from a historical point of view that the thymus was always suspected of having an endocrine function. However the isolation and purification of a thymic hormone or hormones was difficult. The book is a summary of the symposium was held in 2007 during which Dr. Ammann was asked to give a perspective speech on the clinical use of thymic hormones.

Abstracts and meeting agendas of international conferences on: Global Strategies for the Prevention of HIV Transmission from Mothers to Infants. These were the first international conferences devoted solely to prevention of HIV transmission from HIV-infected mothers to their infants. The conferences were organized by Dr. Ammann along with his staff. Funds were raised for each conference to support a dominance of attendance by individuals from resource poor countries. The conferences were highly focused on implementation rather than presenting solely new research. The last conference held in Kampala in 2001 occurred during the September 11, 2001 Twin Trade Towers tragedy in New York City. Nevertheless the conference was deemed a success arming individuals at hospitals and clinics with knowledge to move forward in implementing HIV prevention strategies. From that point on the strategies focused on workshops in underserved areas rather than large international conferences held in major cities in resource poor countries.
