Description
In recent years, progress in the field of virology has advanced at an unprecedented rate. Issues such as AIDS have brought the subject
firmly into the public domain and its study is no longer confined solely to specialist groups.
The Encyclopedia of Virology
is the largest single reference source of current virological knowledge. It is also the first to bring together all aspects of the subject
for a wide variety of readers. Unique in its use of concise 'mini-review' articles, the material covers biological, molecular, and medical
topics concerning viruses in animals, plants, bacteria, and insects.
More general articles focus on the effects of viruses on the immune
system, the role of viruses in disease, oncology, gene therapy, and evolution, plus a wide range of related topics.
Drawing on the latest
research, the editors have produced the definitive source for both specialist and general readers. Easy-to-use and meticulously organized,
the Encyclopedia of Virology clarifies and illuminates one of the most complex areas of contemporary study. It will
prove an invaluable addition to libraries, universities, medical and nursing schools, and research institutions around the world.
The
Second Edition has been thoroughly updated with approximately 40 new articles. This edition includes more illustrations and color plates
in each volume.
Audience
Animal and plant virologists, medical virologists, microbiologists, immunologists, pathologists, clinicians, health care workers, nurses,
researchers and technicians in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, and undergraduate and graduate students in the biological
and biomedical sciences.
