{"product_id":"9783319340029","title":"Understanding the HIV\/AIDS Epidemic in the United States","description":"This book examines the HIV\/AIDS epidemic in the United States using the concept of syndemics to contextualize the risk of both well-known, and a few lesser-known, subpopulations that experience disproportionately high rates of HIV and\/or AIDS within the United States. Since discovery, HIV\/AIDS has exposed a number of social, psychological, and biological aspects of disease transmission. The concept of “syndemics,” or “synergistically interacting epidemics” has emerged as a powerful framework for understanding both the epidemiological patterns and the myriad of problems associated with HIV\/AIDS around the world and within the United States. The book considers the disparities in HIV\/AIDS in relation to social aspects, risk behavior and critical illness comorbidities. It updates and enhances our understanding of the HIV\/AIDS epidemic in the United States and contributes to the expanding literature on the role of syndemics in shaping the public’s health.​\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Year: \u003c\/strong\u003e2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImprint: \u003c\/strong\u003eSpringer International Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFormat: H\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWeight (Gram): 5974\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eric R.
