The impact of the AIDS pandemic on health systems and entire
societies in the 1990s will be much more severe than it was in the
1980s; up-to-date information about the disease is now crucial. Yet
even though readers are deluged by technical publications and
popularizations, no single book tracks, on an annual basis, the
evolution of the pandemic, its effects, and the worldwide response.
To fill this gap, Jonathan Mann, founding director of the World
Health Organization's Global Program on AIDS and currently director
of the International AIDS Center at Harvard University, has
assembled a team of experts. "AIDS in the world" synthesizes the
best possible information, data, and thinking about AIDS into one
volume. This book provides a guide to rekindling the worldwide
assault on AIDS. To ensure that AIDS and HIV prevalence; mortality
rates; links between other infections and HIV; breakthroughs in
biomedical, clinical, and behavioural areas; prevention and care;
legislation and human rights issues; and economic and demographic
aspects. "AIDS in the World 1992" provides a global assessment for
where we are now and where we are headed; it spotlights critical
issues and highlights communities and countries that may be
especially vulnerable to the dissemination of HIV. Publication
scheduled before the VIIIth International Conference on AIDS in
July 1992, this work should be useful to governments, policymakers,
scientists, health care workers, and journalists around the world
who will rely on this book to make the crucial decisions of this
decade and the next.
