Theoretical models for understanding AIDS in relation to society and the general question of high risk sexual practice, often the means of transmission of the virus, are among the issues discussed in this volume. It also explores the social context of policy and programme development in fighting AIDS - organizing drug users, forced blood-testing and family support groups, for example. Versions of these articles were originally delivered as papers in thematic sessions of the 1989 American Sociological Association annual meeting. Collectively, they represent the cutting edge of sociological work on the AIDS crisis.
