Summary

In this unique & important book, one of the world's leading authorities on the history of diseases describes the "history" of the major epidemic of our age. Several narratives overlap in this compelling work, which was a bestseller in France when it was originally published there. The first of the narratives is an overview of how viruses & humans coexist. The second follows the hunt to isolate the killer virus that became known as AIDS. The third is a medical detective story, as the author reports on the work of the public health officials who tracked the transmission of this startling new epidemic. Here at last is a book that makes the complex history of AIDS accessible to the general reader. It is now available in a new & affordable paperback edition. "(This) compact history is a refreshingly fair account by a first-class mind with no axes to grind."--THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW. "Grmek has succeeded in writing what may well be the best AIDS book to date."--THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK REVIEW. "An important & provocative book..."--SCIENCE.
