Summary

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a viral infection that can develop into acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). More than 1 million Americans are infected with HIV/AIDS, and the Centers for Disease Control estimate that 15 percent of them are unaware of it. There is no cure or vaccine for HIV/AIDS, but it can be managed through proper medication and a healthy lifestyle. HIV/AIDS, Second Edition describes the symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of HIV/AIDS, the newest research in the field, and future prospects for controlling the disease. 

Chapters include:

  • What Are HIV and AIDS?
  • The History of HIV/AIDS
  • The Biology of HIV/AIDS
  • Diagnosis and Treatment of HIV/AIDS
  • Prevention of HIV/AIDS
  • Attempts to Develop a Vaccine for HIV/AIDS
  • HIV/AIDS: Future Prospects and Concerns.
