AIDS is undeniably one of the most pressing medical emergencies of our era. It is now 12 years since the discovery of HIV and in spite of a world-wide research effort no proven method for controlling AIDS has been developed. HIV Volumes 1 and 2 are guides to studying HIV in the laboratory focusing on specialized techniques unique to this field. Both books provide the novice entering HIV research with clear instructions on how to perform standard experiments as well as including many novel methods described in detail for the first time. Volume 1 describes studies of the virus and infected cells and covers techniques for handling HIV safely, for studying viral entry, replication and neutralization and basic immunological techniques.

Recensione:

HIV: a Practical Approach is the latest two-volume offering from the Practical Approach series and provides the first comprehensive methodology for the HIV field. As such, it can be recommended strongly to all active bench scientists in the field as well as to desk-bound research directors who wish to keep in touch ... well worth the effort. (James C. Neil, University of Glasgow Veterinary School, Molecular Medicine Today, October 1996)

The two volumes are of exceptional value for laboratory workers studying the many different aspects of HIV and HIV disease. At an affordable price, these two volumes provide a wealth of information on standard techniques and on more sophisticated approaches for the study of the interaction between cellular and viral proteins. It is a comprehensive manual which serves as a solid basis for all investigators who are exploring this complex virus and the complex pathogenesis of HIV disease. Prferably in the form of multiple copies, it deserves a place on the bookshelf of any laboratory working with HIV. (M.A. Koch, Zentralblatt fur Bakteriologie 1996)
