About the Book

With the vast developments in the virology field in the past three decades it is a challenge to keep abreast of new breakthroughs and developments. While the specialist literature has grown at a rapid pace, books for students have not kept pace. As a result the field has lacked a modern primer for some time. Basic Virology meets the needs of instructors everywhere who need an engaging and concise introduction to this challenging subject.Basic Virology provides an accessible synthesis for all students who need to master the fundamentals of virology. The basic concepts of molecular biology and immunology are carefully addressed and molecular detail increases as the book progresses. This unique organisation will lend itself to many syllabi.
