[...]
The textbook, “Understanding and Management of Special Child in Pediatric Dentistry,” reprinted verbatim a long passage from Wikipedia about the transmission of H.I.V., the virus that causes AIDS, via blood products. Written by Priya Verma Gupta and Amitha M. Hegde, the book was published in March 2012. The editor who noticed the copied passage, Dr. James Heilman, found and linked to an identical version from Wikipedia December 2010.

Entire sections of this book have been copy-pasted from Wikipedia articles. Stick to reputable publishers/authors, or go to the Wiki articles directly (they will be more up-to-date) ... and free!

This book is plagiarized directly from Wikipedia. Save yourself the money and read the articles on Wikipedia. I hope that Amazon do not endorse this sort of publication.
