Full Description
Amid the swirl of misinformation and fear surrounding science these days, this book offers a refreshing and essential message: science is good. Bridging the gap between dense academic textbooks and oversimplified - and sometimes erroneous - media reports, the book brings readers an accessible and fascinating look at a topic few realize even exists: viruses that infect plants.
The book illustrates that far from the villains viruses are often made out to be, the green representatives have played a vital role in shaping our understanding of life itself. This is the first book of its kind to spotlight the surprising and even beneficial side of viruses by showing how research in plant virology has driven major breakthroughs across the biological sciences.
The contents aim to reach curious readers and young aspiring scientists alike, revealing how the study of plant viruses opens doors to truly interdisciplinary exploration, from molecular biology to ecology and even human medicine. It reminds us that in the grand story of science, there is as much wonder as there is wisdom.
