Description
Patients with AIDS and other HIV-related disorders present a host of varied and complex clinical problems. There is an enormous amount of literature about HIV yet despite this, it is often difficult to obtain practical information about patient management. The aim of this book is to provide a concise, practical and up-to-date guide to clinical features, investigation, treatment and counselling of such patients.
