Autorenporträt
In the 1990s James Driscoll, Ph.D., led the AIDS movement for FDA reform. He is author of scores of articles on a wide range of subjects and four previous books, most recently Shakespeare and Jung: The God in Time and Shakespeare's Identities. As an activist for AIDS prevention and gay rights, he has distinguished himself with trenchant criticisms of an outmoded, bureaucratized FDA and of political opportunism masquerading as religious conviction.
