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.
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.
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。

评分值得一看 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
评分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.
评分艾滋恐怕是所有疾病中与政治最密切挂钩的了,如果少数群体能得到更多的同理心、接受度和关注度,它本不会成为像现在这样令人生畏的杀手,与其说艾滋是上帝对同性恋的惩罚,不如说是上帝对大多数人冷漠麻木的惩罚……这本真的写得很好了,我还说怎么写得这么客观和有同理心,最后访谈里说是openly gay reporter……那没事儿了
我……哇的哭出来,太难受了,看完我一天没看书。 其实我刚开始看的时候,就知道全球艾滋病患者目前已经超过七千万了。但那是统计数据,和真正看到这件事情怎么发生,完全不一样。 他们是比尔,盖瑞,尼克,保罗,他们是和我们一样有名字的人。我看着他们努力,但我知道,他们...
评分 评分这本书期待已久了,终于在去年12月份的时候出版,译文纪实系列的作品从大多从亲历者或者记者的角度出发,通过自己的经历,或大量的采访和调研,为读者还原故事的全景。这种体裁是很有价值的,它帮助我们站在更高的视角上全面观察艾滋病疫情鲜为人知的背后故事。 译文纪实关于传...

评分这本书的英文名是 and the brand play on,其实讲的意境与“商女不知亡国恨,隔江犹唱后庭花”有很大的相似之处。核心就是艾滋病的传播完全是人祸。各方人物为捍卫自己的权利做出的选择,让科研没有经费,健康宣传不到位,传染源不禁止。艾滋病白白传播5年后才幡然醒悟,然而覆...
