AIDS : society, ethics and law

This volume features a collection of some of the most important articles on the social, ethical and legal implications of a variety of problems caused by AIDS.

The wide-ranging articles were selected on the basis of three criteria: theoretical depth and coherence; their impact on the subsequent debate; and the social and ethical relevance of the problems addressed.

Sections in the book include: physicians and patients; AIDS and the law; HIV testing; clinical research in developed countries; clinical research in developing countries; and dying with dignity.
