President George W. Bush has pledged $15 billion tocombat AIDS, and additional hundreds of millions of dollars have beendonated by rich countries and charitable foundations.Yet every aspect of the disease has been subject to acrimonious debate.Is AIDS a real disease? Is it a single disease? What is the real extentof the AIDS pandemic? Does HIV cause AIDS? Is AIDS sexuallytransmitted? Do conventional anti-HIV drugs do more harm than good?Are thecandidate anti-HIV vaccines effective, or even safe? Are there safe andeffective treatments that can be made widely available at affordablecosts?Big pharmaceutical companies profit from the sale of lucrative drugsand hope to profit even more from effective AIDS vaccines, which arestill in the pipelines after more than two decades. AIDS is perhaps themost-researched yet most-misunderstood disease in the world, about whichthe most misinformation is spread for political purposes.Consequently, the multi-billion dollar international projects foraddressing the "AIDS pandemic" may well miss their targets of alleviatingsuffering and death, and could even make things worse.The book unravels the complex scientific debates surrounding the AIDSpandemic, and reviews effective treatments that are safe, effective, andaffordable.Recommendations"I strongly recommend this book.
