EDITORIAL REVIEWS | Product Description The new edition of HIV and the Pathogenesis of AIDS provides a state-of-the-art review of the current research, explains the history of the disease, and examines how scientists, clinicians, and public health workers have responded to the challenges presented by HIV/AIDS in the 25 years since its recognition. Many exciting developments in the field have deepened scientific understanding of HIV/AIDS and have provided novel approaches for prevention and treatment. The book explores potential approaches for therapy and a vaccine for the prevention of HIV infection and AIDS is discussed. Thoroughly updated and revised, the third edition continues to provide a comprehensive analysis of the subject that is unmatched in the field. Figures and tables illustrate and emphasize key points and the text is extensively annotated. Written in an accessible and clear style, the book presents a balanced view of HIV/AIDS and serves as a valuable reference for students, researchers, clinicians, and health care providers. Praise for the second edition: "It is the best single source for students committed to understanding the multiple facets of the HIV epidemic and is equally valuable for experienced investigators to confirm facts, test concepts, and with persistence gain new insights into old ideas." - Journal of the American Medical Association "Jay Levy has managed this academic A-Z...of AIDS pathogenesis with considerable aplomb, as befits a scientist who has been at the centre of AIDS research for over one and a half decades." - The Lancet |

| HIV and the Pathogeneses of AIDS by High Achiever (USA) 5 Stars November 19, 2008 Good book, great price. A bit longer to ship but it came as described condition. Thanks!
| | A must have by Keith Campbell 5 Stars July 29, 2008 This book is the "bible" for understanding HIV/AIDS. It is a must have for students, researchers, doctors, and those who care for people with the disease.
| | HIV and the pathogenesis of AIDS 5 Stars June 01, 2000 This is really excellent book about HIV. It is easy to understand but contains nearly all advanced recent topics including history, immunology and pathogenesis of HIV. Especially for the students who study HIV, this is the best reference for general and specific knowledge.
