Description: "This monograph addresses the methodological problems related to measuring risky sexual behaviour and suggests an effective way to measure the prevalence of an issue largely undocumented in existing literature. After examining the impact of mass media, socio-demographics, and views of policy-makers, and both service providers and beneficiaries, this work demonstrates the value of embracing mixed research methods to produce quality research on challenging and sensitive topics."
