About this title

Synopsis

Best-selling textbook fills the gap between introductory texts and advanced reviews of major virus families.

• Focuses on concepts and principles to present a comprehensive treatment from molecular biology to pathogenesis and control of viral infections.
• Illustrates why and how animal viruses are studied and demonstrates how the knowledge gained from such model viruses can be used to study viral systems that are still relatively unknown.
• Provides a thorough introduction to principles of viral pathogenesis, a broad view of viral evolution, a discussion of how viruses were discovered, and an explanation of the history of the discipline of virology.
