    • Summary:This new edition of <B>AIDS Testing</B> significantly enlarges the coverage of topics in this rapidly-changing area. The high level of concern among health professionals and the general public makes up-to-date information on testing for HIV and related retroviruses more important than ever. Recognizing the widening role of AIDS testing in our society, the editors have expanded the new edition to in- clude not only laboratory aspects of AIDS testing, but also applications in blood bank and hospital environments, insurance implications of testing, psychosocial and legal issues, and management considerations of AIDS testing in the workplace and among health care workers. <BR>The first edition was reviewed in the <I>New England Journal of</I> <I>Medicine</I> as "a very successful balance of detailed informationabout various aspects of laboratory testing and a comprehensive view of its clinical and social roles", and "comprehensive, succinct, and well executed".
