具体描述

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.

作者简介

RANDY SHILTS was one of the first journalists to recognize AIDS as an important national issue and, in the early 1980s, he began to report on AIDS full time for the San Francisco Chronicle, making him the only journalist to do so. He was also the author of The Mayor of Castro Street: The Life and Times of Harvey Milk and Conduct Unbecoming: Gay and Lesbians in the U.S. Military. Shilts died of AIDS-related complications in early 1994.

「有些人已经说过,罗纳德·里根在历史书上只有一件事被人铭记:他是任由艾滋病在美国蔓延人;是在行动迫在眉睫时,将政治置于美国人民的健康之上的国家元首。」 如果最开始发现的时候就得到重视,得到公众的关注和理解,这可能可以改变一些。然而,疾控中心只把这些未确定的...

《世纪的哭泣》原著题目是“And the Band Played On”,让人联想到杜牧的诗句:商女不知亡国恨,隔江犹唱后庭花。书问世以后,许多人问兰迪·希尔兹为何取此书名,他解释道,“照常营业”的时髦说法而已——其实这是一句歌词,在美国乐队“The Temptation”1970年的作品“Ball ...

I can't help but think maybe the history is repeating itself. What‘s happened in the US feels so familiar. The Trump administration's response to covid-19 in the early days of the outbreak was almost parallel to that of Reagan's.

美利坚也并没有那么美好,但是也要看到美利坚的厉害之处,那些在逆境中坚持研究的学者值得尊敬,官僚们的表现则令人厌恶。

值得一看 除了实在是很长 除了依照时间顺序详尽揭露了艾滋病前期发展的历史 还传达出了太多很有意思的和值得思考的现象 | 另外Robert Gallo真的是在一群killers中最贱的人了
