Virology - Principles & Applications of Virology

The aim of this app is to help the reader appreciate the relevance of virology in the modern world, including the fields of vaccines, anti-viral drugs and cancer. There is also a chapter on prions.

This remains an excellent app for any student studying virology as part of their degree. The early chapters provide a thorough and clearly written background to the necessary molecular biology, and are suitable both for the beginner but also as a short refresher course. The app uses figures and schematics extremely well to explain a number of diverse virus replication cycles in helpful stages, building towards the bigger picture each time. Supporting chapters exploring concepts such as vaccines, therapeutics and pathology make the app a very complete yet compact review of modern virology. I highly recommend this app.

Virology is a fascinating and rapidly developing subject. The introduction of new laboratory techniques and the continued application of established methods are producing a wealth of new information. Virology is a branch of science that is of immense relevance to mankind for a host of reasons, not least of which is the threat to human health caused by viruses, such as HIV, the hepatitis B virus, papillomaviruses, measles and influenza viruses, to mention just a few.

The app of Virology is an accessible introduction designed to enable students to understand the principles of virus structure, replication and genetics. The aim of this app is to help the reader appreciate the relevance of virology in the modern world, including the fields of vaccines, anti-viral drugs and cancer. There is also a chapter on prions. The second edition has been extensively revised and updated to reflect the many developments in virology and offers deeper insights into the subject. Newly-discovered viruses are discussed and there is an additional chapter on the influenza virus.

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

An introduction to the relevance of virology to the modern world, including the latest developments in the field

An introduction to the theories behind the origins of viruses and how they are evolving, with discussion on emerging viruses

Aimed at undergraduate students of biology, microbiology and biomedical sciences taking courses in virology, this is also an invaluable resource for graduate students who have previously studied little or no virology and are looking for an accessible introduction to the subject.

Virology: Principles and Applications is a clear and accessible introduction to this fast-moving field, providing a comprehensive resource enabling the reader to understand the key concepts surrounding this exciting subject. The reader is introduced to the principles of virus structure, replication and genetics, along with the theories behind the origins of viruses and how they are evolving.

this app covers the field of virology from molecular biology to disease processes using a unique systems approach. There is a new chapter on Human Viral Disease and rapidly developing areas, such as the use of viruses as gene therapy vectors, have been included.

The consideration of immunology now covers two chapters, one on innate immunity and the other on adaptive immunity, reflecting the explosion in knowledge of viral interactions with these systems.

The coverage of vaccines and antivirals has been expanded and separated into two new chapters to reflect the importance of these approaches to prevention and treatment.

Virus infections in humans are considered in more detail with new chapters on viral hepatitis, influenza, vector-borne diseases, and exotic and emerging viral infections, complementing an updated chapter on HIV.

The final section includes three new chapters on the broader aspects of the influence of viruses on our lives, focussing on the economic impact of virus infections, the ways we can use viruses in clinical and other spheres, and the impact that viruses have on the planet and almost every aspect of our lives.

这个应用程序的目的是帮助读者了解病毒学在现代世界中的相关性，包括疫苗，抗病毒药物和癌症领域。还有一章关于朊病毒。

对于任何学习病毒学的学生来说，这仍然是一个很好的应用程序。前面的章节为必要的分子生物学提供了全面而清晰的书面背景，既适合初学者，也适合作为短期进修课程。该应用程序非常好地使用数字和原理图来解释在有用的阶段中的许多不同的病毒复制周期，每次都建立更大的图像。支持探索疫苗，治疗和病理等概念的章节使应用程序成为现代病毒学的一个非常完整而紧凑的评论。我强烈推荐这款应用。

病毒学是一门引人入胜且迅速发展的学科。新实验室技术的引入和既定方法的不断应用正在产生大量新信息。病毒学是科学的一个分支，由于各种原因与人类有着极大的相关性，尤其是艾滋病病毒，乙型肝炎病毒，乳头瘤病毒，麻疹和流感病毒对病毒造成的人类健康威胁。提一下。

Virology的应用程序是一个可访问的介绍，旨在让学生了解病毒结构，复制和遗传的原理。这个应用程序的目的是帮助读者了解病毒学在现代世界中的相关性，包括疫苗，抗病毒药物和癌症领域。还有一章关于朊病毒。第二版已经过广泛修订和更新，以反映病毒学的许多发展，并提供对该主题的更深入的见解。讨论了新发现的病毒，还有一章关于流感病毒。

亮点包括：

介绍病毒学与现代世界的相关性，包括该领域的最新发展

介绍了病毒起源背后的理论及其演变过程，并讨论了新兴病毒

针对生物学，微生物学和生物医学科学的本科学生学习病毒学课程，这对于以前研究过很少或没有病毒学并正在寻找可用的入门介绍的研究生来说也是一个非常宝贵的资源。

病毒学：原理和应用是对这个快速发展的领域的清晰易懂的介绍，提供了一个全面的资源，使读者能够理解围绕这个令人兴奋的主题的关键概念。向读者介绍病毒结构，复制和遗传学的原理，以及病毒起源背后的理论及其演变过程。

 这个应用程序涵盖了从分子生物学到疾病过程的病毒学领域，使用独特的系统方法。人类病毒病有了新的篇章，并且已经包括了快速发展的领域，例如使用病毒作为基因治疗载体。

免疫学的考虑现在包括两章，一章关于先天免疫，另一章关于适应性免疫，反映了病毒与这些系统相互作用的知识的爆炸性增长。

疫苗和抗病毒药物的覆盖范围已扩大，并分为两个新的章节，以反映这些方法对预防和治疗的重要性。

关于病毒性肝炎，流感，媒介传播疾病以及外来和新出现的病毒感染的新章节更详细地考虑了人类中的病毒感染，补充了关于HIV的最新章节。

最后一部分包括三个关于病毒对我们生活影响的更广泛方面的新章节，重点关注病毒感染的经济影响，我们在临床和其他领域使用病毒的方式，以及病毒对地球的影响几乎我们生活的方方面面。
