Synopsis
This is a factual account of the AIDS virus intended to dispel ignorance and fears about the disease while pointing out its very real dangers. The authors examine various theories of the origin of the virus and look at the disease from a practical point of view - how it is and is not transmitted, the illnesses that can develop and the treatment and support that is available. The impact of the virus - medically, socially and economically - is considered, and the authors also look at the problems that may be encountered in getting tested for AIDS, and the prejudice faced by even suspected carriers in matters of employment and insurance. Case histories and diagrams are used to illustrate the text, and the authors' intention is to give practical information and advice to the lay reader.
