<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"For many years previous editions of Basic Virology were the best selling undergraduate text. It has been popular because of its easy to read writing style, outstanding figures, and its appropriate level of coverage for undergraduate virology courses. As the title suggests, Basic Virology covers the basics of virology, virological techniques, molecular biology and pathogenesis of human viral disease at a level that is accessible to undergraduates. The third edition was published in 2008. The fourth edition will bring a much-needed update with expanded coverage of SARS and MERS coronaviruses, hepatitis C virus, influenza virus, HIV and Ebola virus as well as inclusion of new virological techniques and important new advances in viral therapies for human diseases. Instructors have been asking for a new edition, so the 4th edition of Basic Virology will be very well received. This text fills a niche among undergraduate virology texts for which there is limited up-to-date competition and because of this, there will be ample opportunity to attract new adopters in addition to fulfilling the desire of current users for an updated version"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>The foundational textbook on the study of virology</b></p> <p><i>Basic Virology, 4<sup>th</sup> Edition</i> cements this series' position as the leading introductory virology textbook in the world.
