Basic Virology, 3rd Edition

“This latest revision to the very successful Basic Virology is more than just a simple update… The new chapters are very timely and address current virology research topics including the important issues of molecular pathogenesis and bioinformatics. The text is well written and very understandable with excellent use of photos, diagrams, and tables to highlight and aid in the understanding of difficult issues. Instructors will find the text up to date and the figures readily adaptable to Powerpoint lectures. Students will be pleased to find the text engaging while presenting virology in a clear, concise, and enjoyable manner.” Professor Michael R. Roner, University of Texas, Arlington
