Synopsis
Testing and screening for HIV and AIDS give rise to ethical, legal, and social issues of the most controversial and delicate kind. In this book, an international team of eighteen doctors, philosophers, and lawyers present a fresh and thorough discussion of these issues; they aim to show the way to practical advances but also to provide an accessible guide to the debates for readers new to them. They pay particular attention to the sensitive nature of the information yielded by a test for the HIV antibody. Together the essays illuminate not only public policy and medical practice in connection with HIV and AIDS, but also broader issues about professional ethics and individual rights in other medical and social contexts.

Aids Book Review Journal
`This fascinating series of essays covering the topics in the subtitle and much more, shows how valuable AIDS has been as a worked example of a series of interdigitating core issues in medical ethics, as it has been in so many areas of clinical medicine, public health and public policy.'
Anthony J Pinching, Journal of Medical Ethics
`The book succeeds in stimulating the reader to reflect on these difficult issues and I recommned it to all those involved in the care of patients with HIV.'
A R Freedman, Journal of the Royal College of Physicians 33/6, Nov/Dec 1999
