	The History of HIV/AIDS

	Imagine a disease that was usually fatal and could spread each and every time two people have sex. Now imagine that that disease progressed so slowly that it took an average of ten years from the time of infection until the infected person's death, sometimes as much as twenty years. Let's also imagine that the disease was caused by a virus so small, a mere 130 millionth of a millimeter in diameter, that if it was magnified several times, it still could not be seen with the naked eye. And what if the disease affected mostly people in the prime of their lives, rather than at the end of their years? And what if the disease produced hideous symptoms like purplish blotches on the skin, extreme fatigue, and severe weight loss? And imagine that disease was new and spreading around the world at an alarming rate, infecting tens of millions of people.

▪	Abigail Adams


	Abigail Adams

	When Abigail Adams was asked late in life whether she would have wanted her husband to go into politics had she known it would mean years of separation from him, she replied in the affirmative. "I feel a pleasure," she explained, "in being able to sacrifice my selfish passions to the general good, and in imitating the example which has taught me to consider myself and family but as the small dust of the balance, when compared with the great community." Her answer was vintage Adams: a bit solemn, perhaps, but utterly sincere in its insistence on the primacy of public duty over personal concerns. Both Abigail and John Adams tended to minimize the pleasure they took in winning public recognition, though it was real enough; but both, surely, had a generous measure of what the eighteenth century called "public virtue."

Al Capone


	Al Capone

	Capone belongs to that handful of successful criminals who have enjoyed public admiration during their careers. Among that group, Al Capone as a master criminal stands second only to Jesse James. And just as Jesse James's popularity benefited from the Civil War tragedy, Capone's celebrity derives in large part from the war between the government and the people over Prohibition. It is hard to imagine now the fame and success Capone achieved. Estimates are that in 1927 when he was only 28 years old his organization took in some $105 million; he was able to demonstrate his power publicly by humiliating his handpicked mayor, Joseph Klenha, on the steps of the town hall in Cicero, Illinois--a small, outlying suburb of Chicago--while a police officer looked on. In 1930, journalism students at the Medill School in Chicago chose Capone as one of the ten most outstanding persons in the world, along with Mahatma Gandhi, Albert Einstein, and Henry Ford. Countless films, melodramas, and books have been written about Capone. He was among a handful of criminals who could use the media to entertain and mislead the public. He also knew that he symbolized the public's discontent with social and cultural policies (Prohibition) and economic trends (the 1929 Wall Street collapse) in the country.

▪	Andrew Carnegie


	Andrew Carnegie

	The legendary Midas could turn any object (including the food he needed to survive) into gold. Andrew Carnegie bettered Midas; he turned iron into gold and lived to tell about it. Early on, Carnegie was involved in the iron business, owning shares in Andrew Klomans foundry and in the Keystone Bridge Company. Thanks to his position with the Pennsylvania Railroad and his service with Tom Scott in the Secretary of war's Transportation Department during the Civil War, Carnegie came to see the value of the railroad in the war effort. The essence of Carnegie's vision was to imagine the possibilities for the iron industry brought about by the railroads' need for rails, locomotives and cars, and bridges, and, later, the need for armor plate and other iron components for ships, as well as iron for agricultural, industrial, and construction uses.

▪	Angela Yvonne Davis


	Angela Yvonne Davis

	Although Angela Y. Davis was once labeled a dangerous, hardened criminal, she describes herself as a Black woman who is a Communist, a woman who has dedicated her "life to the struggle for the life of Black people," the struggle against racism and sexism. Her rhetoric is both radical and revolutionary, and as an orator, she captures the devastating impacts of both immediate and longterm oppression. In her speeches, Davis identifies and examines the myriad interconnections between past and present; she explores the connections between racism and sexism, economic oppression and violence, and the impending nuclear annihilation brought about by the government's domestic and foreign policies. Throughout her speeches, she presents a vision of a world without any of these foes: a world in which African-American women and men live in health, safety, and respect; a world in which children are free to grow, play, and learn without physical or mental harassment and harm; and a world in which the human spirit is strong not because it refuses to be broken but because it is nurtured, valued, and encouraged. Davis's skill and contribution as an orator rest in her ability to call attention to the subtle and the overt oppression that occurs in the present and the past while simultaneously building a vision of a safer and healthier future.

▪	Anthony Comstock


	Anthony Comstock

	As a contrast to Carnegie, let us take the modern Puritan, Anthony Comstock, who was almost a clinical example ot some typical American traits morbidly exaggerated. And let us take him as he is most glowingly presented by his friend Charles G. Trumbull in Trumbull semi-official biography, Anthony Comstock, Fighter.

▪	Charles Darwin


	Charles Darwin

	Charles Darwin, son of a physician, grandson of Erasmus Darwin, poet and physician, and of Josiah Wedgwood, potter, was born at Shrewsbury, England, Feb. 12, 1809. Studied medicine briefly at Edinburgh, graduated at Cambridge in 1831, intending to take Holy Orders. His real interest, however, was in natural history, and he became naturalist on H. M. S. Beagle, making extensive studies in the southern hemisphere, 1831-1836. Began study of origin of species in 1837, publishing his great work on that subject in 1859, following it with later work on evolution and plant behaviour. He married his cousin Emma Wedgwood in 1839, and lived in semi-retirement at Down in Kent from 1842 to his death on April 19, 1882. He did not originate the idea of organic evolution, but was the first to amass overwhelming evidence in support of it and, with Alfred Russell Wallace, to present convincing arguments for natural selection. His work on the geology of South America alone would have won him permanent distinction in science. His genius lay in his capacity for sustained effort--despite continuing ill-health--and in the open-minded, patient, tentative attitude with which he approached scientific problems. He is buried in Westminster Abbey. His influence in life and thought continues to grow with the years.

▪	Che Guevara


	The Legacy of Ernesto Che Guevara

	Che's legacy contains an indiscriminate blending, overlapping and confusion of intellectual and practical contributions to different areas of behavior that should be separated and distinguished. First, there is Che the insurrectionary theorist, strategist and tactician. This is the main thrust of his legacy, and it weighs heavily on his post-1967 followers and on interpreters of the Latin American left. Second, there is Che the economic theorist and planner. This second body of material is predicated on the first, peripheral to it and thus far applicable only to the Cuban experience. Third, there is Che the guerrilla hero, the martyr and myth. This romantic and glamorous aspect of his legacy has captivated young people and misled them into believing that revolutions are made simply by taking up the gun. Experienced revolutionaries are not deceived by the heroic image of Che as the new man of the twentieth century; indeed, they have frankly discouraged this cult of personality as an expression of youthful but misdirected idealism. In Latin America, as elsewhere, it is apparent that seemingly unending and often dull tasks are necessary to the building of a revolutionary movement.

▪	Mahatma Gandhi


	Mahatma Gandhi

	Reaching so ideally high, adhering so adamantly to noble principles and what he called "purity of means," Gandhi failed to achieve all he hoped for India. But the passion of his life was the legacy he left to his country and to the world, inspiring millions with the grandeur of his dream and some few disciples with an ardent love of suffering on their own painfully narrow road to martyrdom. In Gandhi's passion lies the key to his inner temple of pain. He suffered joyfully, guarding his dream to someday restore the epic "Golden Age" of goodness and truth to Mother India. And through the multifaceted prism of his passion, Gandhi's tragic weakness is revealed as the other side of his singular strength, helping to account for his final failure to win that for which he worked hardest and suffered most.

▪	Thomas Edison


	Thomas Edison and Incandescent Lightning

	The invention of arc lighting naturally led to a search for methods by which electricity might be used to provide illumination for homes. The bright and sometimes flickering glare of arc lamps made them entirely unsuitable for this purpose. Sir Humphry Davy, in addition to discovering the principle of the electric arc, had also noted the ability of electricity to produce incandescence, and during the sixties and seventies scientists theorized that electric lamps might be produced which utilized this principle. But the problems to be solved before a workable incandescent lamp could be created were much greater than those which had to be worked out before arc lighting became practical. An incandescent substance had to be found; to avoid swift oxidation it could be heated only in an atmosphere of nitrogen or in a high vacuum, and if this latter alternative were to be used, pumps capable of producing a higher vacuum than any currently in use would have to be developed.
