Desire for Children. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Oct 2009, Pages: 84
Desire to conceive and bear children within the context of human immunodeficiency viral infection remains a threat to women, children, and society in general. Despite medications and scientific technologies to reduce the incidence of mother to child HIV transmission, risk to both mother and child still exists. This book examines the relationship between self-esteem and desire for children among low income Black women with and without HIV infection. The scientific community and healthcare providers will find this work timeless. Whether studying the behaviors of women with chronic life-threatening communicable illnesses or caring for a marginalized population, the book offers the reader insights to correlates of desire for children among low income Black women, some of whom are HIV infected.
