This book, featuring the unique methods and condition of India, introduces and estimates different approaches to the prevention, control, and treatment of infectious diseases. Major efforts are devoted to the holistic approach to AIDS, the deadly disease of human immune system, and HIV, the pathogen that causes AIDS. The book includes studies on the establishment of mathematical models on the transmission dynamic, the connection between mental and physical health in HIV-positive people, advanced understanding and therapeutic approaches for several specific conditions, as well as government efforts and achievements, all presented in a highly luminous and readable manner. Additionally, it brings new lines of thinking into this field by providing a refreshing view over alternative and complementary medicine practice aside from an insight into the treatment of nanoparticles combined with metal. Each chapter is thick with leading-edge and in-depth knowledge, producing precious experience for reference and further study while being especially valuable for scholars from developing countries because of its close attention to cases in India." —Wenguo Cui, Professor, Orthopedic Institute, Soochow University, China
