Abstract
|
:
|
"Completely revised and updated, the new edition of this groundbreaking text integrates molecular biology with medical and veterinary disease aspects of viral infection. Unlike most virology textbooks which focus on the molecular biology of viral replication, this book also incorporates information on epidemiology, control, phylogeny, and evolution of viruses."--Jacket
