DESCRIPTION

And the Band Played On: Politics, People, and the AIDS Epidemic

By the time Rock Hudson's death in 1985 alerted all America to the danger of the AIDS epidemic, the

disease had spread across the nation, killing thousands of people and emerging as the greatest health

crisis of the 20th century. America faced a troubling question: What happened? How was this epidemic

allowed to spread so far before it was taken seriously?In answering these questions, Shilts weaves the

disparate threads into a coherent story, pinning down every evasion and contradiction at the highest

levels of the medical, political, and media establishments. Shilts shows that the epidemic spread wildly

because the federal government put budget ahead of the nation's welfare health authorities placed

political expediency before the public health and scientists were often more concerned with international

prestige than saving lives.Against this backdrop, Shilts tells the heroic stories of individuals in science

and politics, public health and the gay community, who struggled to alert the nation to the enormity of the

danger it faced. And the Band Played On is both a tribute to these heroic people and a stinging

indictment of the institutions that failed the nation so badly. As an added bonus, when you purchase our

Audible Modern Vanguard production of Randy Shilts' book, you'll also receive an exclusive Jim Atlas

interview. This interview &#8211where James Atlas interviews Larry Kramer about the life and work of
