Book Description
'The chapter authors and book editors have collaborated to produce a treatise that reads as if written by a single author. Obvious care has been taken throughout the chapters to make the text approachable and understandable by those with limited knowledge of virology and yet with the depth necessary to satisfy the most demanding of scholars.' Michael Goldblatt, President and CEO, Functional Genetics, Inc. 'The authors did an amazing job walking that fine line between too much detail for non-specialists and not enough sophistication for the cognoscenti.' Richard M. Ranshoff, Director, Neuroinflammation Research Center 'I can't imagine a better place to learn than this very well-thought out and comprehensive volume by leading authorities on this important subject.' Stephen S. Morse, Founding Director, Center for Public Health Preparedness, NCDP 'No other book is currently available that has the depth and range of the material presented... This book will undoubtedly be an important resource to the scientific and medical community.' Etty (Tika) Benveniste, Associate Director, Basic Science Research, Comprehensive Cancer Center, Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Alabama, Birmingham 'Authoritative, accessible, and extensive ... a must read for any one interested in neurotropic viruses and how to combat them.'
