Viruses: Biology, Applications, and Control

Not very detailed at all. I am VERY surprised this book is being used in a graduate course. Personally, I couldn't see this being used in any biology (major) undergraduate course either. I've seen more detail of viruses in terms of replication and virulence in molecular biology books than what I've seen in this.

Good conditionBought it when it was on sele

For decades I've been waiting for the perfect intro to viruses and now it's here! Several authors and publishers have attempted this on the introductory/undergrad level, but no one has ever really succeeded.Harper's strengths: clear nontechnical language, concise and compact format, beautifully illustrated, appealing layout, current facts, study questions, internet sources, Appendix I: replication cycles/strategies of major virus families, perfect for reference and visual learning! Appendix II: viral drugs in tabular form including names, target, mode of action, formulas - a combined textbook and reference.All in all, an excellent didactical approach - great job by author and publisher!
