Abstract
The scientific presentations at this symposium have provided many clues to the future direction of research in virology, immunobiological processes, and AIDS. Exciting newscasts describing the identification of what appears to be the AIDS agent have occurred concurrent with the symposium. It is clear that much of the subject matter of this symposium is relevant to issues of great interest to the general society. Against this scientific backdrop--and at a historical moment--I would like to share some subjective reflections about “what AIDS can teach us.”
This chapter is based on the banquet address delivered by the author on April 24, 1984, at the Bay Harbor Inn, Tampa, Florida.
