"Atlas of STD and AIDS, 3rd Edition", provides an illustrated review of the entire field of sexually transmitted diseases. The epidemiology and clinical manifestations of each infection are reviewed, followed by details of the diagnostic tests available to reach a definitive diagnosis. Therapeutic options are then discussed for each infection; specific treatment guidelines are also provided. Sections on prevention strategies and management of complications are included, and each chapter contains an up-to-date bibliography. This new edition contains greatly expanded coverage of HIV and AIDS, now in two chapters and containing the most current information on the virus, the syndrome, current treatment regimes and therapeutic options. This text atlas combines full clinical detail of each infection with the essentials of laboratory information of relevance to a practicing ID or genitourinary specialist. The text is liberally illustrated with over 1,100 colour illustrations.
