A second, thoroughly revised and updated edition of the first ever guide to the legal aspects of AIDS. Written by experienced legal professionals under the auspices of Britain's major AIDS charity, The Terrence Higgins Trust, AIDS: A Guide to the Law provides clear, straightforward guidance through numerous areas of the law affected by AIDS. Some of the most controversial and challenging topics are addressed including: Insurance, Housing, Employment, Children and Young People, Immigration. All the legal needs of people with AIDS and HIV infection are examined. There is a section on the medico-legal aspects of AIDS (such as anti-body testing and the subject of informed consent) and a chapter on the legal and practical steps towards setting up a voluntary or charitable organization. Concise and accessible, AIDS: A Guide to the Law will be indispensible for counsellors, health and social workers, lawyers, welfare agency advisors and indeed anyone who needs a legal rights guide to AIDS.
