• catalog abstract "AIDS in the World is the first analysis of the global confrontation with AIDS. By explaining the roots of individual and collective vulnerability to the pandemic, it sets the stage for a revolutionary personal, community, and international response to the AIDS crisis. This book provides the data, projections, and information critical to analyzing where we are and where we are going - information basic to a new global vision for a world confronting AIDS. According to this comprehensive, independent study by the Global AIDS Policy Coalition, worldwide efforts to bring the epidemic of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and AIDS under control are now at a critical juncture. AIDS in the World projects that by 1995 nearly 20 million people will be infected with HIV, and 6.4 million adults and children will develop AIDS; by the year 2000, between 38 and 110 million adults and as many as 10 million children will be infected with HIV and up to 24 million adults will develop AIDS. Yet as the pandemic worsens, the global response is falling behind. AIDS in the World examines a wide range of critical issues such as AIDS and sexual behavior, human reproduction, sexually transmitted diseases, dementia, drug injecting behavior, the impact of the media, and the status of governmental and nongovernmental responses to the pandemic. It projects a vision of the dimension, shape, and impact of the pandemic, and the societal response - a vision without which the world response to AIDS may be too little, too late. The information presented in AIDS in the World is of value to professionals working on AIDS and related issues, individuals infected with HIV and AIDS, and all who are interested in and concerned with AIDS and with global health.".
