Abstract:
In this accessible and up-to-date book, Goosby clearly states what the subtitle implies and what statistics have shown-that the HIV/AIDS epidemic is hitting African American men and women harder than any other ethnic group. After a detailed explanation of the disease, Goosby goes on to advise readers how to prevent its spread, find a healthcare provider, and be responsible to oneself and significant others.
