Abstract
The first installment of a three-part summation of the current state of understanding of AIDS traces the short but bitter history of the epidemic. It also reviews the remarkable progress made in investigating the viral etiology, the immunologic dysfunctions, and the patterns of transmission of the syndrome, and evaluates the possibilities for eventual prophylaxis and therapy.
