HIV is now one of the most thoroughly researched infectious diseases in medicine - and yet it remains one of its greatest challenges. Within a few decades, the diagnosis has changed from a near-certain death sentence to a chronically treatable disease. This book traces this development and shows why the story of HIV is by no means over. The focus is on modern therapies, immune and gene therapies, genome editing, strategies for controlling viral reservoirs, and realistic prospects for functional cures. At the same time, the work highlights the social, ethical, and global dimensions of medical progress: stigmatization, aging with HIV, legal issues, and global inequality. Well-founded, differentiated, and interdisciplinary, the book combines medical research with social reflection and is aimed at both specialists and interested readers. Bremen University Press has published over 5,000 specialist books in various languages since 2005. January 2026
