内容説明

The "London International Atlas of AIDS" captures in map form the first recorded decade of one of the most serious global pandemics in human history. At one level, the Atlas is a historical document, showing how the disease came to be distributed and what the scientific world believed about the origins and spread of the disease during its first ten years. Much of what is believed to be true about AIDS and HIV may prove to be incorrect in a climate of intense research about the disease, but this Atlas brings a variety of geographical approaches to mapping and interpreting known data on an analytical basis. The Atlas considers the virological character of AIDs, its origins and dispersals, and the timing of its spread across the globe. Contrasting regional examples are presented and the authors consider the economic and geographical consequences of the pandemic. Much material from primary sources is published here for the first time.
