This is guide for primary care doctors and nurses in treating and managing people with HIV infection at the primary care level. It will also be useful for counsellors, social workers, therapists, pharmacists and alternative health care professionals who are caring for or supporting people with HIV and AIDS.

This edition addresses the essential medical care for people infected with HIV, as well as issues relating to the epidemic in general, the HIV test, counselling, care of people who are dying. It also provides information on anti-retroviral therapy and common HIV-associated conditions. It covers AIDS and women and children, ethical and moral considerations, HIV risk and accidental exposure to health care workers, reducing mother to child transmission, TB and sexually transmitted infections.

It is ideal for those who are as yet unfamiliar or relatively new to clinical managing or caring for people with HIV/AIDS and to those on the "front line" of primary care. The title will also serve as a useful reference function in clinics and for health care personnel training.
