Description
The first in a series of volumes, this book contains an authoritative collection of review articles by leading, active researchers in this rapidly-expanding field. Each topic has been carefully chosen for its current interest, especially where the editors felt that data had accumulated to a point where critical analysis would be both timely and helpful. Collating literature in this way not only provides a clear introduction for both specialist and non-specialist alike, but also helps to identify areas of concensus, disagreement or lack of information, and thus provides a stimulus for future research. Whilst the subject matter of the series will be of primary interest to those working on the human immunodeficiency virus itself, many other specialists in biology and medicine will find the advances forced by the pace of AIDS research applicable to their own work.
