This book discusses HIV/AIDS in all of its aspects - biological, medical, social and legal - in a manner accessible to the general public. It considers the global impact of HIV/AIDS, drawing upon the most recent data available. The book explores current and potential therapies including the USFDA mandates, controversial drugs, mutants to HIV drugs and possible therapy for pregnant women and their children. The discussion of the immunology of HIV/AIDS is particularly clear and there is full coverage of the means and prevention of transmission.
