This volume addresses the complex and vitally important political and institutional side of threats to public health and assesses the U.S. government's capacity to respond effectively. Although AIDS is a prominent case study, this is not a book about AIDS alone. Other public health hazards discussed are Lyme disease, swine flu, Legionnaires' disease, Reye's syndrome, silicone breast implants, cyanide-laced Tylenol, toxic shock syndrome, and vaccine injury.
