Since it was first diagnosed in the early 1980s, AIDS has changed the landscape of society. Yet we still lack a necessary basic understanding of its power and impact.
The Encyclopedia of AIDS provides a comprehensive look at AIDS and its effects on society, politics, law, and humans and contains information to help increase awareness and preparedness where the disease is concerned. With more than 300 entries contributed by 175 authorities, ranging from academics to doctors, it covers major topics in eight areas:
•basic science and epidemiology
• transmission and prevention
•pathology and treatment
• impacted populations
• policy and law
• politics and activism
• culture and society
• the global epidemic
