More than three decades after its emergence, HIV/AIDS remains a powerful threat and killer throughout much of the world. However, over the years, we have come a long way in our understanding of this global epidemic. This volume surveys the history of HIV/AIDS, preventative measures that can be taken to curb its spread, and treatment options that can be pursued by those infected. Although there is still no cure, readers will learn that through responsible behavior, proper treatment, and support, those infected or at risk of becoming infected can help limit the potentially devastating effects of this insidious STD.
