AIDS is precipitating a fundamental re-examination of societal attitudes toward not only intimacy, but the way we think about ourselves, others, and government. This slim volume by the Dean of the School of Law at Yeshiva University raises well-reasoned questions on the broad ramifications of these changes. "As AIDS in its second decade becomes more and more a matter of class and race,'' Price says, a careful balance must be maintained between the individual, the church, and the state in areas of media, education, medicine, sexuality, privacy, and discrimination. We should prepare, however, for the likelihood of greater governmental intervention to preserve individual rights.
