This review is from: Principles of Virology, Vol. 2: Pathogenesis and Control (Paperback)
Normally when I'm in a class and the material from the lecture just isn't making sense I usually turn to my textbook to see if I can piece together the concepts. Unfortunately, this textbook is probably the worse that I have ever seen and offers nothing other than mild to extreme frustration trying in trying to learn the material. First off the separation of the volumes serves no purpose other than for the publisher to make more money, because it offers no convenience for having smaller segments as it suggests. Secondly, the material is so poorly presented with things like: diagrams being presented and explained on separate pages so as to add to confusion, often the authors will make a statements only to seemingly contradict previous ones, and wow, the second book only (109.16 at my school) is made almost entirely out of an appendix for various viruses.
If my name was on that book I would be appalled that I even took part in one of the worst sources of knowledge found anywhere. The funny thing is, they recommend this material for anyone at the beginner level of virology. Good luck with that. |
