Image of AIDS Handbook, The (3rd Edition)

This fully revised and updated edition introduces the disease, its origins, symptoms, and methods of transmission, and provides all those involved in community work with a thorough knowledge of AIDS and its progression so that they can be confident in counselling both those already infected, as well as the the rest of the community. The book also lays out a comprehensive and practical action plan for running an AIDS prevention programme aimed at reaching all sections of the community, and takes account of recent developments, especially in the use of combination therapy, treatment of opportunistic infections and prevention of transmission from mother to child.
