Reviews
From the reviews:
“This is an overview of various behavioral interventions that may be integrated with antiretroviral medications to prevent persons living with HIV from transmitting the virus to others. … students and practitioners in the areas of nursing, public health, social work, and medicine who desire a better understanding of HIV prevention efforts could benefit by reading it. More specifically, the book provides practical information for those interested in incorporating behavioral-based interventions into their research and practice.” (Michael G. Kavan, Doody’s Review Service, January, 2013)
