"HIV and Aids: Basic Elements and Priorities" is a concise collection of all aspects of this disease and a source of readily available knowledge. It examines all currently advocated preventive measures such as health education, condom use, safer sex practices, and treatment of sexually transmitted infections. Coverage details strategies for prevention and control as well as the latest global information about HIV/AIDS.
This book is recommended by the World Health Organization Eastern Mediterranean Region Office (WHO-EMRO) as a basic resource for medical faculty libraries.
It is a pleasure reading HIV and AIDS: Basic Elements and
Priorities. A much awaited text-book for students, researchers,
teachers and scientists alike. The book embodies information from
very basic definations and understandings to state of the art
technology for studying issues on the most challenging area of
human health hazard. To me and my students the Chapters on
clinical aspects, particularly, neurological disorders,
psychological disorders, HIV and tuberculosis and alternate
therapeies are of great use. Of equal interest are the most
informative chapters on prevention and control. The contents on
evaluation, monitoring and prevention could be of immediate use in
the early years of a researcher interested in engaging himself for
biological, demographic and social aspects of the deadly
syndrome.
The book is of ideal size. Each chapter is complete by itself with
an useful abstact, introduction and uptodate bibliography. Very
carefully proof read, bereft of mistakes and written in easy to
understand language.
A good text for students (Graduates, Post-Graduates and Research
Scholars), useful reference for teachers and social workers, ideal
posession for scientists. A must for all libraries across the
world. I rate the book for 5 star.
An Assian Edition is recommended.
