VIROLOGY
- Edited by Brian W. J. Mahy and Volker ter Meulen.
Now presented in two volumes, Virology has been thoroughly
revised and updated for the tenth edition to include all newly identified
viruses and emerging viral infections in addition to providing an
authoritative reference to established pathogens.
The two volumes present comprehensive coverage of viruses and viral
infections, including both their general and
specific characteristics, and also cover the basic sciences, the classification,
identification, epidemiology, pathogenesis, immunology and control
of virus infections. The authors have provided consistently detailed
reviews of pathogenic viruses, the infections arising from them and
the principles of diagnosis and control, and provide clear exposition
of the implications of molecular techniques for the categorization
and classification of viruses.
The breadth of coverage makes Virology essential for all
who need a detailed and authoritative yet easily accessible reference
text on viruses and the diseases they cause: infectious disease specialists,
pathologists, virologists, public health scientists, and all those
involved in viral research.
