Synopsis
It is now 12 years since the first reports of AIDS, and the
disease has become a pandemic of devastating proportions. Despite
the enormous social, emotional and economic costs, some rays of
hope are now visible. Biomedical research into the problems
presented by the disease has gained considerable momentum. The
discovery of the etiologic agent, the human immunodeficiency
virus (HIV), in the mid-1980's has resulted in massive efforts
to characterize the organism. In addition the development of new
therapies is under intense study and anti-viral and
immunomodulating drugs are showing some efficiency in preliminary
testing. To date, attempts to produce a protective vaccine have
been only partially successful, but these investigations are
continuing unabated and we can remain cautiously optimistic that
these tremendous efforts may yield some promise in the medium,
if not short-term, period. In compiling this volume, the authors
have aimed to review key topics in the fast-moving field of HIV
research and provide the reader with easy access to current
literature and trends in experimentation.
