This practical handbook seeks to provide all the information that psychologists working in this difficult area require to counsel patients with AIDS or the HIV (AIDS virus) infection. Each chapter of the book is written by a recognised team of international experts and owing to the international nature of the authors, different approaches to the problem in different geographical areas may be analyzed and compared. The book aims to cover a sufficiently wide range of issues to enable readers to find in one source all they need to know about this area of psychological counselling.
