Doody's Book Reviews
"A complementary approach to the prevention of the spread of HIV focuses directly on the potential sources of infection. … Positive Prevention articulates this complementary approach and describes its empirical basis. … This book is a ‘must read’ for those interested in the prevention of HIV transmission. It has enough breadth to provide a general overview of ‘prevention with positives’ and enough detail to satisfy and educate those already working in this area. Clinicians … will find this book valuable." (Gary Marks, New England Journal of Medicine, Issue 4, August, 2005)
"Kalichman, a University of Connecticut psychologist and researcher … has edited a timely collection of contributions from international scholars in the field of HIV/AIDS prevention. … The straightforward prose helps condense the translation of complicated technical research data into understandable information. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-level graduate students, researchers, and professionals." (P. Wermager, CHOICE, Vol. 43 (1), September, 2005)
