520    A veteran journalist dramatizes the controversial search 
       for an AIDS vaccine-the players, the politics, the money-
       in a vivid, suspenseful story that reveals how science is 
       done and not done, in America today. A journalist who has 
       written widely about medical research, Thomas recounts how
       the search for an AIDS vaccine has taken a back seat to 
       the search by major pharmaceutical companies for expensive
       drugs to kill the virus. She found social attitudes 
       towards the disease, careerism and timidity among 
       bureaucrats, and corporate anxieties about profits and 
       liability to be primary roadblocks to research.
