Description<br />

Now in its second edition, this popular<br />

text provides activity-based material<br />

that can be used to teach courses on<br />

managing HIV/ AIDS in the workplace<br />

and the community. It deals with many<br />

of the current questions and problems<br />

associated with the AIDS pandemic in<br />

South Africa. The text can be used as a<br />

stand-alone resource for a variety of<br />

courses and it contains material<br />

Written in clear, easy to understand<br />

English, Positive People provides<br />

valuable information and skills for<br />

workers in all sectors of the economy,<br />

as well as people in communities<br />

On this revised edition, we were<br />
