Summary

Designed for graduate students and researchers in all biological and biomedical sciences, this volume brings together the basic science chapters from the two-volume Fourth Edition of Fields Virology. These 37 chapters comprise a comprehensive text and reference on the concepts and research techniques of contemporary virology and the biochemistry, molecular biology, and replication of all viruses. The first part of the book covers basic concepts of general virology and the second part focuses on specific virus families.
