About this book

About the Book

Virology: The Study of Viruses provides a comprehensive examination of viruses, exploring their structure, replication and interactions with host cells. The book delves into the molecular biology of viral infections, including how viruses hijack host cellular machinery to reproduce and spread. It covers a wide range of viruses, from simple ones like bacteriophages to more complex human pathogens such as influenza, HIV and coronaviruses. The book also addresses the latest advances in virology, including vaccine development, antiviral therapies and the challenges posed by emerging viral diseases. This volume serves as an essential resource for students, researchers and professionals in virology, microbiology and infectious disease studies.
