| textbook of medical virology: Medical Virology David O. White, Frank J. Fenner, 1994-06-27 Medical Virology first appeared in 1970 and was immediately hailed as a classic. The Fourth Edition has been completely updated, substantially rewritten, and considerably expanded. Acknowledging that today's students possess a more sophisticated background of molecular and cellular biology, the book is pitched a little higher than was the third edition. Nevertheless, it maintains the exceptionally high standards of the three previous editions, including the now famous user-friendly style. Hundreds of instructive diagrams and succinct tables smooth the path for the reader. Extensive lists of recent authoritative reviews at the end of each of the 36 chapters simplifies the reader's entry into the scientific literature. Throughout, the focus is on fundamental principles, mechanisms and basic facts, rather than on overwhelming detail. Part I of the book, expanded to over 400 pages, comprises in effect a self-contained overview of the Principles of Virology. Part II, entitled Viruses of Humans, deals comprehensively with all the families of human viruses. Extensive coverage is given to the molecular biology of the viruses and of viral replication, pathogenesis and immunity, clinical features of all important diseases caused by all viruses affecting humans, the latest laboratory diagnostic methods, epidemiology and control, including chemotherapy and vaccines. This lucid and concise yet comprehensive text is admirably suited to the needs not only of advanced students of science and medicine but also particularly of postgraduate students, teachers, and research workers in all areas of virology.

| textbook of medical virology: Chemotherapy of Viral Infections P E. Came, L. A. Caliguiri, 2012-12-06 . . . the motto for the therapeutics of the future will have to be de sedibus et causis pharmacorum. P. EHRLICH, 1909 Exciting events in the basic disciplines of virology, immunology, and pharmacology continue to advance the understanding of the pathogenesis and control of virus diseases. At the same time, the rational development of antiviral agents is attracting, to an increasing extent, the interest of workers in other disciplines. Improvements in technology facilitate the definition of potential target sites for antiviral intervention and unmask new viral and host genes. The outcome is a further steady development of new antiviral agents which approach the magic bullets first proposed by PAUL EHRLICH. Remarkable advances in protein synthetic methods that yield polypeptides which inhibit active sites of viral proteins have aided substantially in the basic and clinical study of these antiviral agents. In addition, the extremely rapid progression in recombinant DNA techniques, leading to the synthesis of large quantities of gene products, is also increasing our opportunities at a dashing pace. New information and developing technology facilitate research on the mechanism of action, toxicity, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of new agents. The list of clinically effective antiviral agents is expanding and the number of potentially useful compounds is growing rapidly. This book is a combined theoretical text and practical manual which, it is hoped, will be of use to all who have an interest in virus diseases, particularly scientists, physicians and graduate students. |

| textbook of medical virology: Human Virology Leslie Harold Collier, John Sidney Oxford, 2000 This is the second edition of a well received textbook which was originally published in 1993. The new edition includes major revisions in certain chapters, and integrates the interface between science and medicine more than it did previously. There is also more discussion on clinically important conditions. The bright, bold format, from the first edition has been kept, but has been given a more sophisticated and up-to-date look. Virology, perhaps more than any other discipline, playsan extremely important role in the advances of biomedical research. New discoveries are continually being made, and their subsequent application to the relief of suffering proceed at an ever-increasing pace. Virology is important not only in the study of infections and their treatment and prevention, but also in the unravelling of the most fundamental aspects of biology. This is because viruses have an intimate relationship with the basic machinery of their host cells. Thus, research on how viruses reproduce themselves and spread has given us many insights into the way in which the cells of our bodies function, leading in turn to a better understanding of the whole organism and of how infective diseases may be prevented or cured. The speed of advance in this area has increased the difficulties encountered by students and teachers in absorbing and imparting important information as effectively as possible. It is important that the students are provided with enough information notjust to pass examinations but also to provide a foundation of knowledge adequate for subsequent professional practice. It is equally important that this information is presented in an attractive assimilated manner. In this book Leslie Collier and John Oxford present a delightfully written account of basic and clinical virology that meets both of these requirements. Richly illustrated with around 130 line drawings and photographs , Human virology provides a complete review of this rapidly expanding field of biology for medical, dental, and microbiology students. Leslie Collier is as freelance medical editor and writer and was formerly Professor of Virology at the Royal London Hospital. John Oxford is the current holder of this position. Reviews of the first edition 'Collier and Oxford are to be congratulated on producing a textbook for undergraduates which is refreshing in its ability to make the subject interesting and clinically relevant in a format that is both easy and enjoyable to read.' British Journal of Hospital Medicine 'excellent student text which combines scholarship with easy to remember diagrams and memory aides.' Aslib Book Guide 'The book is very well illustrated and the only adjective for the many electronmicrographs is superb.' J Med Microbiol 'It is a pleasure to recommend Human Virology as a textbook for basic clinical virology.' International Antiviral News |
