Jacobson, a leading Bay Area HIV\/AIDS physician, follows three people from vastly different backgrounds, who are thrown together by a shared urgency to find out what is killing so many men in the prime of their lives. Kevin, a gay medical resident from working class Boston, has moved to San Francisco in search of acceptance of his sexual identity. Herb, a middle-aged supervising physician at one of the nation’s toughest hospitals, struggles with his own emotional rigidity. And Gwen, a divorced mother raising a teen daughter, is seeking a sense of self and security while endeavoring to complete her medical training. Mark A. Jacobson, a professor of medicine at the University of California San Francisco and attending physician at San Francisco General Hospital, began his internship in 1981, just days after the CDC first reported a mysterious, fatal disease affecting gay men.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ulysses Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":51836531114257,"sku":"9781612435701","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/6890\/3185\/files\/cover_c5c38400-de74-4b99-863f-cdfee63f1d46.jpeg?v=1777063372"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.stablebookgroup.com\/collections\/books-by-mark-a-jacobson.oembed","provider":"Stable Book Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
