Full Description
Viruses are pathogens of many diseases of men, animals, and plants, but they are also of interest as molecular genetic models for the solution of biological problems. "A History of Experimental Virology" provides a survey on the most important knowledge on viruses achieved since their discovery 100 years ago. It describes the way, from the viruses simply defined as pathogenic poisons to the characterization of today, based on findings obtained through modern techniques of molecular biology.
