Book Review: HIV management in Australasia: a guide for clinical care by Jennifer Hoy and Sharon Lewin, Published in 2003 by the Australasian Society for HIV Medicine Inc.

Abstract

Remarkable changes have taken place in the management of HIV during the past 10 years with the development of highly active anti -retroviral therapy or HAART. A disease that formerly had an inexorable and universally fatal course has become manageable. The field of HIV medicine is rapidly changing and multi-faceted. A new publication, HIV management in Australasia: a guide for clinical care is an accessible text that explains HIV's biology and epidemiology, the approach to HAART and the clinical manifestations and treatment of HIV complications.
