Managing Your Health, 1999 edition

Introduction

A word about language
Most information about HIV and AIDS is full of technical words that can be hard to understand. This book is meant to help you make informed decisions about preventing and treating disease by giving you information in plain language. But some of the concepts associated with HIV and AIDS are complicated. Many large, complex words have been replaced with easier ones. Definitions are given when technical words are used. Common or slang terms are given in brackets ( ) after many of the scientific words to help make the information clear.

Talking with someone about the information in this book can also be helpful.
