HIV has provided a challenge not only to patients and their close contacts but to those caring for them. This book is based on the long experience of two social workers, both family therapists, who have worked together at the Royal Free Hospital and share the belief that practice has to have a sound theoretical basis. It gives an overview of the HIV epidemic and social work contribution to date, provides information about treatments and examines some of the dilemmas these new developments pose for patients, doctors and social workers.
