A concise, expertly written introduction to virology―a subject rapidly increasing in popularity and importance Fundamentals of Virology describes multiple viral species from each major family and compares their survival strategies. The book begins with a thorough introductory chapter explaining everything readers need to know about the basics of virology. Successive chapters are organized by major families within each Baltimore Classification, a system that classes viruses into one of seven groups. Descriptions include a comparison of viral species based on different identities, such as genome type, type of capsid structure and with or without an envelope, mode of transmission, and tropism. Structure-function relationship, cause and effect, adaptation, and persistence to exist (survival) are all covered. Fundamentals of Virology includes topics of pressing importance today, such as strategies for vaccines and the role of clinical, governmental, and individual response during epidemics and pandemics.
