Review
"A useful reference volume for undergraduate students." -- Choice - January 1999
"Highly recommended for public, school, academic, and health science libraries." -- E-Streams - June 1999
This volume is unique because of its multidisciplinary approach to HIV/AIDS. Well organized, well researched, and well written, it is also without competition.... The Encyclopedia of AIDS is perfect for reference (academic, public, and high-school) collections. It is also recommended for personal libraries.
–Booklist/RBB, November 1998
A useful reference volume for undergraduate students.
–Choice, January 1999
Highly recommended for public, school, academic, and health science libraries.
–E-Streams, June 1999
There is no other one-volume reference work on AIDS that covers the amount of information contained in this work. I strongly recommend that all public and academic libraries, as well as high school libraries, purchase this book.
–Reference & User Services Quarterly
--This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
Product Description
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
