Development Program manages more than half of the fund’s spending, and that the fund has spent $ 10 billion since its creation in 2002.

A GREAT READ and WAY TO LEARN,
This review is from: 100 Questions and Answers About HIV and AIDS (Paperback)
At last, a book about HIV that’s tells me what I want to know, that’s written by a gay guy, and that’s fun to read and doesn’t drag me down. I’ve been a regular user of Dr. G’s web forum for years. It’s nice to read him now, with his amusing and irreverent style, in book form (where he can concentrate on education rather than just placating or pissing off the crazies). If you’ve just found out you’re positive, then this is the book you should read first. But I learned a lot, too, and I consider myself pretty educated on the subject. Everyone with HIV infection should read this book…and lots of other people should, too.

news to an HIV Nurse, By
Ms. “Wingopink” (Aledo, TX. USA) – See all my reviews
This review is from: 100 Questions and Answers About HIV and AIDS (Paperback)
This book is an excellent review material for the nurse and the patient, some physicians could probably use it too!Written by a doctor for everyone! Great stuff for patient teaching in language the average person can understand. He uses words like Yucky and stuff to describe that yucky stuff! I am an HIV RN and I learned something new from it. I’m so pleased with it that I will be using it for my educational support with my clients! Covers everything! There are no wasted questions and every answer is cross referenced to other questions! WOW! I love it! |
