THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE BOOK EVER WRITTEN ON THE HETEROSEXUAL TRANSMISSION OF HIV FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC. Over 50,000 scientific articles were reviewed to obtain the most applicable material. Information extracted from the scientific literature has been "translated" into a language anybody can understand. The book begins by covering all aspects of the sexual transmission of the AIDS virus, including the role of intravenous drug use in the spread of infection. There are discussions on how rapidly the epidemic is spreading among heterosexuals, & the contribution of this spread by sexual contacts with prostitutes. The latter half of the book focuses on the issue of risk control to prevent infection. Detailed coverage of the most current preventive measures against HIV infection is provided, so the reader can more fully utilize the knowledge gained in the earlier chapters to protect himself or herself. The material presented is applicable to any sexually-active individual. However, emphasis has been directed towards persons of 16-25 years of age, where the epidemic is spreading uncontrolled. Main health care professionals (nurses, sex therapists, counseling psychologists, & clinical social workers, etc.) will also benefit from this compendium of important facts on AIDS, many of which have never been published.Denser, J. L. is the author of 'AIDS and the Heterosexual' with ISBN 9780962951305 and ISBN 0962951307.
