Editorial Reviews

Review

"Principles of Virology is an extremely valuable and highly informative textbook that describes virology at the interface of modern cell biology. Instead of teaching virus groups individually, the authors elegantly compile the molecular and cell biological aspects that orchestrate virus replication in general and how infections with these pathogens cause cell damage and diseases. As a teacher of Master students in Biosciences and in human medicine, I highly recommend this textbook.”
─ Ralf Bartenschlager, Department Head and Professor, Molecular Virology, University of Heidelberg

From the Inside Flap

Principles of Virology is the leading virology textbook because it does more than collect and present facts about individual viruses. Instead, it facilitates an understanding of basic virology by examining the shared processes and capabilities of viruses. Using a set of representative viruses to present the complexity and diversity of a myriad of viruses, this rational approach enables students to understand how reproduction is accomplished by known viruses and provides the tools for future encounters with new or understudied viruses.

This fully updated edition represents the rapidly changing field of virology. A major new feature is the inclusion of 26 video interviews with leading scientists who have made significant contributions to the field of virology.

Applicable courses: undergraduate courses in virology and microbiology as well as graduate courses in virology and infectious diseases.

Superb virology textbook

Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2020

Verified Purchase

During the early part of the pandemic I decided to learn virology (already know microbiology and biochemistry but virology is a separate field that incorporates those two disciplines and adds immunology). Caught an excellent Youtube virology course by Vincent Racaniello and decided this book was worth investing in. Excellent science by respected professors. For later info, catch the This Week In Virology podcast on microbe TV. The concepts learned in this book are discussed and even if you know nothing about science you'll learn something every week.

Misleading product!

I only received volume II, when I needed both volumes for class. Both books ARE NOT included. I am very disappointed. I would not recommend anyone set a purchase, since apparently it's a coin toss on whether you will receive only volume I or II (based on other reviews).

the different organization standards is useful when trying to compare the viruses

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2017

Verified Purchase

Book is rearranged by features of virus rather than family of virus, which makes it slightly bit confusing to navigate. However, the different organization standards is useful when trying to compare the viruses. All in all, I really do like this book.

This is listed as a bundle (which to me implied 2 books as pictured). When it arrived not only was it just one book, but it was volume 2.

Great for professionals, not for basic learners

It's okay for basic virology, bit this book goes into so much detail that I have a hard time understanding sometimes and often need to use the authetic internet websites.

Bestes Lehrbuch aller Zeiten

Reviewed in Germany on January 3, 2020

Verified Purchase

Dieses Lehrbuch lässt sich sehr gut lesen, ich konnte gar nicht mehr aufhören. Hebt sich von anderen Lehrbüchern ab, vor allem durch die meiner Meinung nach bessere Kapitelstruktur. Somit kann man auch mal "schnell was nachschlagen" ohne sich durch zich Kapitel kämpfen zu müssen.
Sehr schöne und verständliche Illustrationen. Besonders toll ist die "Zusammenfassung" aller wichtigen Virenfamilien am Ende.

Le livre numérique ressemble en aucun point au livre

Je devais utiliser le livre pour mon cour et à ma grande surprise, la version kindle ne ressemblait aucunement au livre des autres. Les images étaient coupés, des chapitres sans images et des textes surlignés bleus. Bref, j'ai demandé un remboursement plus jamais!

Embasamento sólido em virologia

Reviewed in Brazil on February 25, 2018

Verified Purchase

Ótimo livro! Muito didático, com figuras e fotos que ilustram (reforçam) de forma clara e objetiva o conteúdo. Não é propriamente um livro com enfoque puramente médico, mas é perfeito para os conhecimentos básicos (porém detalhados) acerca da virologia (histórico, estrutura viral, replicação, epidemiologia,...). Fundamental para professores e estudante.
